Long-Term Survival and Quality of Life After Transfusion-Associated Pulmonary Edema in Critically III Medical Patients

摘要

Background:Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) and transfusion-associated circulatory overload (TACO) commonly complicate transfusion in critically ill patients. Prior outcome studies of TACO and TRALI have focused on short-term morbidity and mortality, but the long-term survival and quality of life (QOL) of these patients remain unknown.
