Late transfusion, transfused 7 days or more after admission to intensive care unit; late anemia, reached or would have reached 7.0 g/dl at 7 days or more after admission to intensive care unit. aWorst value recorded up to 6 hours after admission to intensive care unit. bCalculated as g/dl lower than 14 g/dl, with zero deficit defined as a baseline hemoglobin of at least 14 g/dl. | ||
