Consensus of the Brazilian association of hematology, hemotherapy and cellular therapy on patient blood management: Management of critical bleeding.

Although transfusion support remains a vital component of bleeding control, treating severe bleeding goes beyond simply replacing lost blood. A more comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach is essential to optimize patient outcomes and minimize the risks associated with excessive transfusions.
