Abstract
This book provides a concise yet comprehensive review of neonatal transfusion medicine. The text covers major areas of the field, including chapters dedicated to pre transfusion testing, manufacturing, standards and storage; blood product administration; special congenital and acquired disorders in the neonate; hemolytic disease of the newborn; intrauterine transfusions; adverse reactions; and ECMO. The volume features contributions from a diverse group of experts in the field and include pathologists, anesthesiologists, neonatologists, a pediatric hematologist and oncologist, and a high-risk obstetrician. These authors contribute their unique expertise and perspectives to the practice of neonatal transfusion medicine and allow the reader to experience an in depth introduction to each of the chapter topics. Neonatal Transfusion Practices is a valuable, go-to reference that addresses some of the more frequent questions asked by clinicians and professionals who have limited exposure to neonatal transfusion practices. .

Abstract
In the last decade, there have been several clinical trials that have studied red blood cell transfusion triggers in various Intensive Care Unit patient populations. Moreover, critically ill patients often suffer from coagulopathy. Recent studies have addressed the effectiveness of fresh frozen plasma and platelets to prevent or treat bleeding. This book offers a comprehensive summary of transfusion triggers for red blood cells in specific ICU patient populations and specific conditions with the aim to personalize transfusion strategy.áIn addition, it discusses evidence for triggers for plasma and platelets and outlines the most common adverse effects of blood transfusion in the ICU, underlining the need for a careful assessment of its risks and benefits. Transfusion in the Intensive Care Unit is a practical handbook that can be used in everyday practice to guide transfusion and thus will serve as a valuable resource for physicians, fellows and residents working in Intensive Care, Anesthesiology, and Cardiac Surgery.
Contents
Introduction -- Causes of Anemia in Critically Ill Patients -- Red Blood Cell Transfusion Trigger in Sepsis -- Red Blood Cell Transfusion Trigger in Cardiac Disease -- Red Blood Cell Transfusion Trigger in Cardiac Surgery -- Red Blood Cell Transfusion Trigger in Brain Injury -- Red Blood Cell Transfusion in the Elderly -- ScvO2 as an Alternative Transfusion Trigger -- Alternatives to Red Blood Cell Transfusion -- Blood Sparing Alternatives in the Intensive Care Unit -- Massive Transfusion in Trauma -- Transfusion in Gastrointestinal Bleeding -- Platelet Transfusion Trigger in the Intensive Care Unit -- FFP Transfusion in Intensive Care Medicine -- Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury -- Transfusion-Associated Circulatory Overload.
