Patients with QI flags
of 18 transfused
Inclusion criteria, exclusions and transfusion QI flags are evaluated by the
blood program — this page adds the age, mechanism and medication dimensions on top of it,
so both reports always agree. The one addition here is the
age ≥ 65 · SBP < 100 & HR ≥ 100 inclusion path,
which the blood program does not implement.
2 record(s) had no usable age and are excluded from every age-banded table below. They remain in the totals above — dropping them silently would make the bands sum to less than the cohort with no explanation.

Flags total more than patients: one patient can carry
several. 18 of 18 transfused patients have at least one.
