Résumé

Retrospective descriptive study in two geriatric short stay units, including patients aged 80 years-old or over, transfused in 2012 and 2015.
Anemia is the most common hematological pathology in geriatrics. Its prevalence increases with age. It is considered as a fragility factor because leading to loss of autonomy and other complications. Transfusion is a common practice in geriatrics. In 2014, the French national health authority guidelines recommended hemoglobin concentration rates for transfusion on the elderly over 80 years-old. The objective of this study is to compare transfusion practices in geriatric short-stay units, before and after these guidelines were edited.
