Title: Functional Outcomes in Cardiovascular Patients Undergoing Surgical Hip Fracture Repair (FOCUS)
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare liberal red blood cell transfusion therapy with restrictive red blood cell transfusion therapy in surgical patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Adults aged 18 or over years presenting with AUGIB, defined by haematemesis or melaena.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with whom the responsible clinician considers there is a need for immediate RBC transfusion prior to obtaining or regardless of the initial Hb result due to severity of bleeding.
* Existing hospital in-patients who develop AUGIB.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients are aged 16-70 undergoing either an autologous or allogeneic HSCT for any hematologic malignancy

Exclusion Criteria:

* Pregnant or lactating at the time of enrollment
* Already received red cell transfusion after HSCT but prior to enrollment
* Unable/unwilling to provide informed consent.
* Patients receiving HSCT for non-malignancy
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* age 18 or older;
* STEMI (ST segment elevated myocardial infarction)
* NSTEMI (Non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction)
* unstable angina
* stable coronary artery disease (undergoing cardiac catheterization during the index hospitalization);
* written informed consent has been obtained
* hemoglobin concentration less than 10 g/dL at the time of random allocation.

Exclusion Criteria:

* bleeding cannot be controlled at the cardiac catheterization puncture site and/or require surgery to repair vessel
* retroperitoneal bleeding requiring surgery
* clinically important hemodynamic instability based on the judgment of the treating physician
* terminal malignancy or life expectancy less than 6 months
* scheduled for cardiac surgery within the next 30 days
* symptomatic at the time of randomization
* declines blood transfusion
* history of a clinically significant transfusion reaction
* inability to provide informed consent;
* enrolled in a competing study
* previous participation in the MINT trial
* any patient who in the judgment of the research team should not be enrolled in the trial. This would include, but not be limited to, factors such alcohol or drug dependence, or psychiatric illness.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Has undergone surgical repair for a hip fracture
* Has a postoperative Hgb level below 10 g/dL within three days of surgery
* Diagnosis of cardiovascular disease (e.g., coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, stroke or transient ischemic attack, or peripheral vascular disease) or cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, tobacco use, or creatinine levels greater than 2.0 mg/dL)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Unable to walk prior to hip fracture
* Declines blood transfusions
* Suffered multiple traumas
* Pathologic fracture of the hip due to malignancy
* Clinically recognized acute myocardial infarction within the 30 days prior to study entry
* Previously participated in the trial and fractured the other hip
* Symptoms associated with anemia (e.g., ischemic chest pain) or actively bleeding at the time of randomization
