pathology, the amount of blood removed for diagnostic purposes in the 1st week of life and …

Introduction. Anemia is a complication in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, and lab tests
are a predominant risk factor. At least one red blood cell transfusion is given in more than …

Objective. Because blood loss attributable to laboratory testing is the primary cause of
anemia among preterm infants during the first weeks of life, we quantified blood lost …

Introduction: Very low birth weight preterm infants are associated with a greater risk of

Background The benefit to risk ratio of the treatment with erythropoietin (EPO) as a means of
limiting the number of transfusions in very preterm infants during hospitalization, seems to …

Objectives To explore the level of neonatal care on cumulative phlebotomy loss (cPL) and
red cell transfusions in extremely low birthweight [ELBW; birthweight (BW)< 1,000 g] infants …

Objective. In very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, diagnostic and therapeutic decisions
depend on hematologic values. As few data are available, we studied the course during the …

Introduction: Blood loss due to laboratory testing is greatest for the most premature neonates
with very low birth weight who require many weeks of intensive support and monitoring …
