Prophylactic red blood cell transfusions in children and neonates with cancer: An evidence-based clinical practice guideline

Red blood cell (RBC) transfusions play an important role in supportive care in children and neonates with cancer. However, in current clinical practice, evidence-based recommendations are lacking on when to administer prophylactic RBC transfusions. To address this gap, a clinical practice guideline (CPG) was developed to systematically review the available evidence and provide recommendations for clinicians.
