【 摘 要 】

Background & Objective: Critically sick patients often develop moderate to severe anemia, due to various factors. We tested the hypothesis that administering prophylactic recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) together with early identification and correction of iron deficiency anemia in traumatic brain injury patients would have a positive effect on the incidence of RBCs transfusions.
