Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate two approaches to red blood cell transfusion in anemic patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Detailed description

Red blood cell transfusions are extremely common medical interventions, yet, it remains unclear when patients should be transfused. This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility of conducting a research protocol that will lead to a large scale clinical trial designed to evaluate the treatment effectiveness of two transfusion threshold strategies in patients with coronary artery disease.
