Abstract

Effective early resuscitation and maintenance of brain oxygenation are critical for improving the outcomes of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion plays a vital role in this process. Although RBC transfusion can enhance cerebral oxygenation and stabilize hemodynamics, it also poses significant risks including transfusion-related lung injury and transfusion-associated circulatory overload, highlighting the importance of meticulous transfusion management. This review explores transfusion strategies during the early resuscitation phase and the management of anemia in patients with severe TBI, focusing on appropriate treatment targets, utilizing monitoring-based personalized approaches, and summarizing recent research and current insights.
