Simulation of phlebotomy reduction among VLBW preterm infants showing a reduction in the number of RBCTx. The average number of RBCTx during the first month of life determined by modeling of all 26 infant study subjects versus the percentage phlebotomy reduction. The actual RBCTx practice (solid line), the PINT restrictive RBCTx criteria (slightly broken line) and the PINT restrictive RBCTx without capillary Hb adjustment (more broken line) are shown.
