PATIENTS AND METHODS: From March 2018 to February 2020, all adult patients admitted to medical or surgical ICU. Patients who received one or more RBC transfusions during the first month of ICU admission were included in the “transfusion” group, while the remaining patients were assigned to the “non-transfusion” group.
