Summary

The goal of this observational study is to compare patients who underwent major surgery and who were eligible to receive different management of their red blood count, namely, allogeneic transfusions with or without patient blood management, or blood management alone. Its main questions it aims to answer are:

Which group of patients dies more frequently: Patients who receive patient blood management only, patients who receive patient blood management and transfusions where indicated, or patients who are eligible to receive transfusions only.

Among these groups: which group of patients has more complications during hospital stay? Patients will either receive patients blood management, which is the management of anemia, bleeding and coagulation problems, will receive transfusions, that is, blood from other people, or a mix of both.
