Abstract
Among the intraoperative factors, heart rate, and mean arterial pressure were strongly associated with the likelihood of receiving a transfusion, despite the observation that 9.2% of patients never had a physiologic indicator for transfusion or a nadir hemoglobin below 10Â g/dL, suggesting a subset of patients could benefit from a decrease in intraoperative rate of transfusion.
