Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Transfusion policy after severe postpartum haemorrhage: a randomised non-inferiority trial.
To assess the effect of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion on quality of life in acutely anaemic women after postpartum haemorrhage. ⋯ Statistically, non-inferiority could not be demonstrated as the confidence interval crossed the non-inferiority boundary. Nevertheless, with only a small difference in physical fatigue and no differences in secondary outcomes, implementation of restrictive management seems clinically justified.
