Anemia duration may predict ventilator days in ICU patients
NCT ID NCT05382065
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined 236 adults in a surgical intensive care unit who needed a breathing machine for more than 4 days. Researchers wanted to see if the length of time a patient had anemia (low red blood cells) was linked to how long they stayed on the ventilator. The goal was to better understand how anemia affects recovery in critically ill patients.
