Official title

The Effects of Erythropoietin (EPO) on the Transfusion Requirements of Preterm Infants 401-1250 Grams: Two Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Masked, Placebo Controlled Studies

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This study tested the safety and efficacy of transfusing erythropoietin (Epo) and iron in infants of \<1,250g birth weight. For infants 401-1,000g birth weight, we tested whether early erythropoietin (Epo) and iron therapy would decrease the number of transfusions received. For infants 1,001-1,250g birth weight, we tested whether early erythropoietin (Epo) and iron therapy would decrease the percentage of infants who received any transfusions.
