To address this, there is ongoing debate about whether we should consider using a whole blood transfusion approach. Rhaenyra continues to receive blood products in a 1:1:1 ratio. In adults, TXA has been shown to reduce transfusion requirements and improve outcomes. Published 2021 Apr 29. 2022;12(5):e057780.

Data collected from 2002 to 2021 revealed a 72% decline in IPD incidence among children (<18 years), with continued reductions after the transition from PCV7 to PCV13. During the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021), the incidence of IPD reached its lowest level in 20 years. Outcomes From a Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Pediatr.

However, our true success is measured by how effectively we share knowledge, foster understanding, and improve patient outcomes. Despite these limitations, multiple similar case reports demonstrate that single or double-volume exchange transfusion (ET) effectively reduces leucocytosis.

However, large observational cohorts have associated greater degrees of anemia with worse outcomes in patients with cardiac disease. In MINT, 3,504 patients with acute myocardial infarction and anemia were randomized to either a transfusion threshold of ≤8 g/dL, or a liberal transfusion threshold of ≤10 g/dL.

Research and guidelines from Australian centres, like those published by the Australian and New Zealand Neonatal Network (ANZNN), emphasize early detection and management to improve outcomes. If anaemia is confirmed, a blood transfusion may be necessary to restore adequate circulatory volume and improve oxygen-carrying capacity.
