Hemodynamically significant anemia as an indication of transfusion in preterm infants.

In the current study, 36 anemic preterm infants with a gestational age of 28-32 weeks and a postnatal age of 3-9 weeks, all having a hematocrit (hematocrit) level below 30% and being candidates for red blood cell (red blood cells) transfusions, were compared to 36 non-anemic infants with hematocrit levels of 30% or higher in terms of hemodynamic parameters during their initial scans.
