简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate two approaches to red blood cell transfusion in anemic patients with acute coronary syndrome.
详细描述
Red blood cell transfusions are extremely common medical interventions, yet, it remains unclear when patients should be transfused. This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility of conducting a research protocol that will lead to a large scale clinical trial designed to evaluate the treatment effectiveness of two transfusion threshold strategies in patients with coronary artery disease.

研究组 & 干预措施
Liberal Transfusion Strategy
Patients randomly allocated to the liberal transfusion strategy receive one unit of packed red cells following randomization and receive enough blood to raise the hemoglobin concentration above 10 g/dL any time the hemoglobin concentration is detected to be below 10g/dL during the hospitalization for up to 30 days. Any transfusion following the initial unit of packed red cells must be preceded by blood test documenting a hemoglobin concentration below 10 g/dL.
干预措施: Red blood cell transfusion (Biological)
Restrictive transfusion strategy
Receive a transfusion if they develop symptoms related to anemia. Transfusion is also permitted, but not required, in the absence of symptoms only if the hemoglobin concentration falls below 8 g/dL. Blood is administered one unit at a time and the presence of symptoms is reassessed. Only enough blood is given to relieve symptoms. If the transfusion is given because the hemoglobin concentration falls below 8 g/dL, then only enough blood is given to increase the hemoglobin concentration above 8 g/dL.
Symptoms of anemia that will be indications for transfusion are: 1) Definite angina requiring treatment with sublingual nitroglycerin or equivalent therapy. 2) Unexplained tachycardia or hypotension.
