The Safety and Efficacy of Autologous Transfusion in Spinal Surgery for Lung Cancer With Spinal Metastasis
The goal of this single-center prospective randomized controlled trial is to test and compare the safety and effectiveness of autologous blood transfusion in spinal surgery for lung cancer spinal metastases. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does autologous blood transfusion increase the incidence of new metastases? Does autologous …
Blood Warming in Preterm Infants to Decrease Hypothermia
Background/significance: Over 100,000 early preterm infants are born annually in the United States and suffer morbidity and mortality during hospitalization in a neonatal intensive care unit. One such condition is hypothermia. Hypothermia has been defined as a contributor of neonatal morbidity by The World Health Organization. Another acute morbidity is …
RH Genotype Matched RBC Transfusions
To determine the feasibility and efficacy of matching donor red cells by RH genotype for a cohort of chronically transfused patients with SCD.
Management of Shock in Children With SAM or Severe Underweight and Diarrhea
Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of under-five childhood mortality and accounts for 8% of 5.4 million global under-5 deaths. The coexistence of sepsis and hypovolemic shock in children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) having diarrhea is common. At Dhaka hospital of icddr,b, the death rate is as high …
Granulocyte Transfusions After Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant
Although most children with leukaemia are cured using drugs (chemotherapy) alone, for some children additional treatments are needed. Stem cell transplant can cure children where chemotherapy and other drugs have failed. In this case, the immune cells of the donor attack the leukaemia cells of the patient. Cord blood collected …

To assess the efficacy and side-effects of re-infusion of unwashed shed blood during off-pump coronary artery surgery using a novel cardiotomy circuit.
Clinical Study of Combined Platelet Transfusion
Platelet transfusion is an irreplaceable and important treatment method for clinical prevention and treatment of thrombocytopenia or platelet dysfunction. Due to various factors, it is difficult to achieve platelet ABO complete homotypic transfusion in clinical practice. When ABO-compatible platelets cannot be obtained, plasma-reduced platelets, platelets with low anti-A or anti-B …
The Effect of Combined Iron Protocols on Perioperative Allogeneic Transfusion
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a combined iron supplementation regimen can reduce the need for blood transfusions in adults with iron-deficiency anemia undergoing major elective cardiac surgery. The trial will also look at whether this regimen is safe and well tolerated. The main questions it …
Darbe Plus IV Iron to Decrease Transfusions While Maintaining Iron Sufficiency in Preterm Infants
In this phase II trial, the investigators overarching goal is to demonstrate the feasibility and potential benefit of darbepoetin (Darbe) plus slow-release intravenous (IV) iron to decrease transfusions, maintain iron sufficiency and improve the neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm infants. Investigators hypothesize that in infants < 32 completed weeks of gestation, …
