• The effect of an intraoperative treatment algorithm on physicians' transfusion practice in cardiac surgery.

  Despotis GJ, Grishaber JE, Goodnough LT. Transfusion. 1994; 34 (4): 290-6

  Inappropriate transfusion in cardiac surgery may, in part, be due to empiric transfusion therapy instituted in the absence of timely laboratory data. Therefore, the effect of a transfusion decision algorithm based on intraoperative coagulation monitoring of physicians' transfusion practice and the transfusion outcome was evaluated.
