Amount of blood transfused per patient (in units)

Data from two small studies could not be combined as they were skewed and reported as medians and ranges. One RCT in 18 people reported a difference in medians of 0 (interquartile range: 1) with iron therapy. Another RCT in 20 people reported a median difference of 1 unit with iron therapy (range 0 to 2).

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
CI: Confidence interval; RR: Risk ratio; MD: mean difference; g/dL: grams per decilitre of blood.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.

1 Only two small randomised control trials and a subset of anaemic patients resulting in a very small number of participants.
2 Only one study with a small number of participants available.
