Participation Criteria
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Genders Eligible for Study
Description
Patients are considered eligible to participate in the trial if one of the following occur:
First RBC transfusion is requested within the first 7 days (168 hours) of ICU admission.
OR
First RBC transfusion is requested for a patient in the Emergency Room, and the PICU team is involved with the clinical care of the patient, and the patient will definitively be transferred to the ICU.
OR
- Patient assessed pre-operatively and for whom ICU admission is planned post-operatively, and who is determined to definitively require a first RBC transfusion during surgery.
Inclusion Criteria:
Eligible critically ill pediatric patients who have an expected length of stay after transfusion in the ICU > 24 hours based on the best judgment of the attending ICU staff.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Age at time of enrollment < 3 days from birth or has reached their 16th birthday.
- Post-conception age < 36 weeks at time of enrollment
- Documented RBC transfusion within the 28 days prior to fulfilling the eligibility criteria
- Previously randomized in this study
- Weight < 3.0 kg on ICU admission
- Known Pregnancy
- Conscious objection or unwillingness to receive blood products
- Not expected to survive beyond 24 hours, brain death or suspected brain death
- Limitation or withdrawal of care decisions have been made
- Enrollment in another randomized clinical trial which has not been approved for co-enrollment
- Patients for whom autologous and/or directed donation RBCs will be provided
- Patients for whom the treating physician routinely and systematically requests RBC ≤ 14 days of storage
- Patients for whom there systematically exist RBC aliquoting policies that mandate the initial use of units stored ≤ 14 days (ex: Pedi-Pack).
- On ECMO or plan to be immediately placed on ECMO at time of enrollment
- Patient predicted or presumed to require a massive transfusion (> 40ml/kg of all blood components in a 24 hour period) according to treating physician judgment
- Refusal by physician
- Inability to obtain consent
- Blood bank personnel experiences difficulties in securing blood products (difficult cross matches, rare blood groups and diseases like IgA deficiency)
- Insufficient number of ABO type compatible RBC units available in the blood bank at randomization with a storage time ≤ 7 days (minimum 1 unit regardless of patient age)
- All RBC units available for the patient are not leukocyte-reduced prior to storage

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants With New or Progressive Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (NPMODS)
Time Frame: 28 days after randomization
|
The primary outcome measure of this RCT is NPMODS defined as the proportion of patients who die during the 28 days after randomization or who develop NPMODS.
For patients with no organ dysfunction at randomization, New MODS is the development of ≥ 2 concurrent organ dysfunctions during the 28 days after randomization.
For patients with 1 organ dysfunction at randomization, New MODS is the development of at least 1 other concurrent organ dysfunction after randomization.
Patients with MODS (ie concurrent dysfunction of ≥ 2 organ systems) at randomization can develop Progressive MODS defined as development of at least 1 additional concurrent organ dysfunction at during the 28 days after randomization.
All deaths will be considered Progressive MODS.
NPMODS will be monitored up to 28 days or ICU discharge because it is almost never observed beyond this time in children.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Organ Dysfunction
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Difference in number of organ dysfunctions.
|
Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
PELOD-2 Score
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Difference in PELOD-2 score.
Change from randomization to Worst PELOD-2 score.
(Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction) Points are on a range of 0-6 and based on Neurologic, cardiovascular, renal, respiratory, and hematologic function.
The higher the score the worse the organ failure is and higher mortality rate.
|
Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Nosocomial Infection
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Difference in nosocomial infection rate.
|
Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Sepsis, Severe Sepsis, Septic Shock
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Difference in the rate of sepsis, severe sepsis or septic shock.
|
Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Difference in the rate of acute respiratory distress syndrome.
|
Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
Mechanical Ventilation
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
28 day mechanical ventilation free days
|
Up to 28 days after randomization.
|
ICU Free Days
Time Frame: Up to 28 days after randomization
|
Difference in ICU free days.
|
Up to 28 days after randomization
|
Mortality
Time Frame: Up to 90 days after randomization
|
Difference in 90 day mortality.
|
Up to 90 days after randomization
|
