“Small-Volume Tubes to Reduce Anemia and Transfusion”
STRATUS will evaluate the use of small-volume ("soft-draw") blood collection tubes for laboratory testing in reducing anemia and transfusion in intensive care unit patients without significant adverse consequences. This is a simple, cost-neutral intervention that could improve the quality of patient care and reduce the harms of frequent laboratory testing.
