Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary endpoint is the total number of deployed units of blood transfusion (transfusion number of RBCs) per group (PRICAR PRICAR-1 and-2) and the number of patients without the administration of blood transfusion units (RBCs) for inclusion in the ISALA.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcomes include infection during and after hospitalization, length of hospital stay and hospital admissions, the amount and type of care following surgery, including unplanned readmissions during the 12-month follow-up, physical health and their costs. The quality of life according to SF-36 pre- and post through a survey was conducted, will also be analyzed.
