Blood management study for surgical patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how hospitals manage your blood during and after planned surgeries that have a moderate to high risk of bleeding. It aims to find better ways to reduce blood loss and the need for transfusions.

- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are scheduled for a planned (not emergency) surgery with moderate or high risk of bleeding.

This study tests a special program to manage your blood before, during, and after gynecologic surgery to reduce the need for blood transfusions. It aims to keep your blood healthier and help you recover better.
This trial studies a program to manage blood levels before, during, and after heart surgery. It may help reduce the need for blood transfusions and improve recovery.
This study tests whether giving blood transfusions based on each patient's needs during and after heart surgery is safe and effective. It compares different transfusion thresholds to see which works better.
This study looks at how to detect and treat pre-surgery anemia (low hemoglobin/low blood level) in people having planned operations where blood transfusion is likely. Some participants may also use a machine that collects and returns their own blood during surgery to reduce the need for donor blood.
This study looks at how different levels and types of anemia (low red blood cells) before planned surgery affect your recovery. If you have anemia and are having a moderate- to high-risk surgery (not brain or heart), you may be able to join to help doctors learn how to better prepare patients for surgery.
This study looks at how managing blood products during heart surgery with a heart-lung machine affects the risk of red blood cell breakdown in children. The goal is to find safer ways to handle blood during these procedures.
