Health | Another commonly used indicator of the magnitude of hemorrhage is estimation of the volume of blood lost, often quantitated as the number of units transfused or as a transfusion rate. Although there is general agreement that the volume of blood loss is important, there is substantial uncertainty about the best way to estimate it. Persistent red blood in the nasogastric aspirate correlates with an increased requirement for subsequent transfusion. (references) | |
