Comparison of 30-day mortality in surgical patients who refused stored RBC transfusion versus injured patients who were initially resuscitated with PolyHeme. Computer-generated curves are based on nadir Hb levels. Mortality was significantly less (P<.05) in the PolyHeme group when RBC Hb was 5.3 g% or less (critical anemia).
