First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 201 very premature babies born before 31 weeks to see how often they received blood transfusions that went beyond French guidelines. Researchers found that many transfusions were given even when not recommended, possibly due to the babies' fragile health. The goal was to understand why this happens and improve future care.
