From: Transfusion requirements in septic shock (TRISS) trial - comparing the effects and safety of liberal versus restrictive red blood cell transfusion in septic shock patients in the ICU: protocol for a randomised controlled trial

Figure 1

Transfusion trigger levels in Denmark. The figure shows the lowest haemoglobin level measured 0 to 2 hours before red blood cell (RBC) transfusion in 213 consecutive septic shock patients in 7 Danish ICUs. The data represent 358 transfused units of saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol (SAGM) [20]. To convert values in mM to g/l multiply with 1.6.
