在非洲，经常进行输血来治疗严重的小儿贫血。由于存在艾滋病毒传播的风险，确定何时输血可以降低严重贫血儿童的死亡风险变得越来越重要。对于 1989 年 10 月至 1990 年 10 月入住肯尼亚医院的所有儿童，我们收集了有关临床表现、血红蛋白 (Hb)、输血情况和院内生存率的数据。在 2433 名入院患者中，29%（684 名）患有严重贫血（血红蛋白
In Africa, blood transfusions are frequently given to treat severe paediatric anaemia. Because of the risk of HIV transmission, identification of when transfusion will reduce the risk of death for severely anaemic children has become increasingly important.For all children admitted to a Kenyan hospital from October, 1989, to October, 1990, we collected data on clinical presentation, haemoglobin (Hb), receipt of transfusion, and in-hospital survival. Of 2433 admissions, 29% (684) had severe anaemia (Hb
