ABSTRACT
Introduction: most transfusions are given in surgery patients (60 to 70 %) and anesthesiologists are responsible for the indication of the majority (50 to 60 %). Adequate transfusion practice requires constant and critical clinical assessment, taking into account that allogeneic blood transfusion is risky.
Objective: evaluating the indication criteria of red cells in patients undergoing surgery.
Methods: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study in the Department of Anesthesiology Hermanos Ameijeiras Clinical Surgical Hospital was performed.
Results: predominant age group of 60 and over (49 %), women 64 % overweights and 44 %. 22 % had a history of hypertension. In 67 % of cases it was not expressed in the history of transfusion criteria.
Conclusions: no patient in the valid precise indication of blood transfusion criteria was used.
