Summary
This study looks at whether doctors at Siriraj Hospital follow a new guideline for treating anemia in patients before major surgery. Anemia is common in surgical patients and can lead to more blood transfusions and worse outcomes. The researchers will track 93 anemic patients to see how often the guideline is followed and what happens during and after surgery.
