RBC: red blood cell concentrate, FFP: fresh frozen plasma, LOS: length of stay in the ICU. Data are presented as mean ± SD or as a percentage for the whole patient group (overall), the patients with acute kidney injury (AKI), and a matched control group (control). Length of stay is expressed as median and interquartile range. P-values are given for AKI versus control group.
