  • Transfusion intensity in the ICU: Reasons and triggers. [Journal Article]

  • CONCLUSIONS: RBC transfusions are administered for distinct, intensity-dependent combinations of reasons and triggers. Transfusion intensity and clinical context are therefore key factors in evaluating transfusion practices. Among bleeding critically ill patients, hypotension and tachycardia are the most frequently cited physiological triggers.

  • Noninvasive hemoglobin monitoring during red blood cell transfusions in very preterm infants. [Journal Article]
    Transfusion. 2026 Jul 29. [Online ahead of print]Dani C, Corsini I, … Montano ST
  • CONCLUSIONS: NHb significantly increased during RBC transfusions in anemic preterm infants. We found a moderately positive correlation between NHb and cHb values, but bias and agreement were significantly worse when Hb levels were lower before transfusion. Our results suggest that NHb may be useful to assess its relative changes and not to assess the absolute value of Hb.

  • The effect of washing on potassium leakage from red cells from individuals with familial pseudohyperkalemia. [Journal Article]
    Transfusion. 2026 Jul 29. [Online ahead of print]Meli A, Stevens-Hernandez CJ, … Bruce LJT
  • CONCLUSIONS: All refrigerated RBC leak potassium; however, FP RBC leak potassium and reach equilibrium more rapidly than non-FP. RBC washed on Day 2 still contained a high concentration of potassium and the differential rate of potassium loss between FP and non-FP RBC post-wash was as expected. By Day 14, FP RBC lost most of their intracellular potassium and the rate of potassium loss post-wash was reduced.
