1 Prevalence of ischaemic heart disease at admission to intensive care and its influence on red cell transfusion thresholds: multicentre Scottish Study†   T.S. Walsh, D.B. McClelland, R.J. Lee, M. Garrioch, C.R. Maciver, F. McArdle, S.L. Crofts, I.

2 Fig 1 Flow diagram showing the admissions studied and the number who had documentary evidence of IHD at ICU admission. British Journal of Anaesthesia  , DOI: ( /bja/aei073) Copyright © 2005 British Journal of Anaesthesia Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Histograms showing the responses to each of the three clinical scenarios sent to clinicians after collection of the clinical data. The lower threshold indicates the haemoglobin value below which clinicians stated they would definitely give red cell transfusion to patients and the upper threshold indicates the haemoglobin value above which they would definitely not transfuse. Median (IQR) values for each response are shown for each histogram. British Journal of Anaesthesia  , DOI: ( /bja/aei073) Copyright © 2005 British Journal of Anaesthesia Terms and Conditions
