Resumo em Inglês
Objective To test the hypothesis that red blood cell (RBC) transfusions in preterm infants are associated with increased
intra-hospital mortality.
Study design Variables associated with death were studied with Cox regression analysis in a prospective cohort
of preterminfants with birth weight <1500 g in the Brazilian Network on Neonatal Research. Intra-hospital death and
death after 28 days of life were analyzed as dependent variables. Independent variables were infant demographic
and clinical characteristics and RBC transfusions.
Results Of 1077 infants, 574 (53.3%) received at least one RBC transfusion during the hospital stay. The mean
number of transfusions per infant was 3.3 + 3.4, with 2.1 + 2.1 in the first 28 days of life. Intra-hospital death occurred
in 299 neonates (27.8%), and 60 infants (5.6%) died after 28 days of life. After adjusting for confounders,
the relative risk of death during hospital stay was 1.49 in infants who received at least one RBC transfusion in
the first 28 days of life, compared with infants who did not receive a transfusion. The risk of death after 28 days
of life was 1.89 times higher in infants who received more than two RBC transfusions during their hospital stay, compared
with infants who received one or two transfusions.
Conclusion Transfusion was associated with increased death, and transfusion guidelines should consider risks
and benefits of transfusion.
