Ana Pedrero Gil: How Are Intraoperative PRBC Transfusions Associated with Postoperative Delirium in Adults
Ana Pedrero Gil, Anesthesiologist at Igualada University Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Xiaohan Xu published in eClinical Medicine, adding:
“This study aimed to examine the association between intraoperative PRBC transfusions and postoperative delirium in a general adult patient population undergoing a broad spectrum of surgical procedures.
They hypothesized that PRBC transfusions are associated with a higher risk of postoperative delirium, and that this depended on perioperative hemoglobin levels.”
