Title: Effects of Transfusion Thresholds on Neurocognitive Outcome of Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants (ETTNO)- a Blinded Randomized Controlled Multicenter Trial
Brief Summary: To compare the effect of restrictive versus liberal red blood cell transfusion thresholds on long-term neurodevelopmental outcome in extremely low birth weight infants.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Acute leukemia patients (AML, ALL, APL, treatment-related myeloid neoplasm, high grade MDS)
* Admitted with plans for inpatient myelosuppressive chemotherapy (with standard of care or protocol regimens)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Age less than 18 years
* Acute coronary syndrome as defined by active chest pain, dynamic ECG changes, troponin greater than 2.5
* Active blood loss
* Receiving erythropoietin stimulating agents prior to admission
* Chronic Renal Failure in Renal Replacement Therapy
* Documented wish against transfusion for personal or religious beliefs
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* 18 years of age or older
* Either ST segment elevation myocardial infarction or Non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction consistent with the 3rd Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction criteria that occurs on admission or during the index hospitalization
* Hemoglobin concentration less than 10 g/dL at the time of random allocation
* Patient physician believes that both of the transfusion strategies are consistent with good medical care for the patient

Exclusion Criteria:

* Uncontrolled acute bleeding at the time of randomization defined as the need for uncrossed or non-type specific blood
* Decline blood transfusion
* Scheduled for cardiac surgery during the current admission
* Receiving only palliative treatment
* Known that follow-up will not be possible at 30 days
* Previously participated in MINT
* Currently enrolled in a competing study that interferes with the intervention or follow-up of MINT or enrolled in a competing study that has not been approved by the local Institutional Review Board
* Patient physician does not believe the patient is an appropriate candidate for the trial
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Infants with a birth weight of 400 - 999g

Exclusion Criteria:

* Missing written parental consent.
* Gestational age \> 29 + 6/7 weeks
* Major congenital anomalies (including chromosomal aberrations, cyanotic congenital heart defects, syndromes likely affecting long-term outcome, and major congenital malformations requiring surgical correction during newborn period).
* Infants who died before 48 hours, infants in whom the clinical decision to withhold intensive care was made, infants who were not considered viable
* Participation in another study with ongoing use of an unlicensed investigational product from 28 days before study enrollment until the end of the study
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Age 18 or older
* Planned cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass
* Informed consent obtained
* Preoperative European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE I) of 6 or more

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who are unable to receive or who refuse blood products
* Patients who are involved in a preoperative autologous pre-donation program
* Patients who are having a heart transplant or having surgery solely for an insertion of a ventricular assist device
* Pregnancy or lactation (a negative pregnancy test must be obtained prior to randomization for women of childbearing potential.)
* Patients who are unable to receive or who refuse blood products

Answer: C
