There is growing interest in reducing the exposure of patients to allogeneic blood transfusions by lowering preoperative cross‐matched blood ordering and adopting alternative practices, such as autologous blood donations. Our aim was to investigate the predictors for perioperative blood transfusion (PBT) in head and neck cancer patients undergoing neck dissection (ND). 
Risk Factors for Blood Transfusion with Neck Dissection
TLDR
Awareness of preoperative risk factors for PBT may lead surgeons to reduce the risk of PBT, anticipate the need for transfusion, and manage patients carefully to prevent unplanned reoperation.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy in anemia patients: a retrospective cohort study
TLDR
Anemia increase the morbidity after surgery, as it is indecently associated with myocardial infraction, decrease glomerular filtration rate, and other complications, as well as, preoperative anemia expose the patints to blood components transfusion risks.
Developing a predictive risk score for perioperative blood transfusion: a retrospective study in patients with oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma undergoing free flap reconstruction surgery.
TLDR
The use of the integer-based TRS allowed the identification of high-risk patients who may require perioperative transfusion undergoing tumor resection surgery for the treatment of OOSCC.
Prediction of perioperative transfusions using an artificial neural network
TLDR
This research examines the efficacy of using artificial neural networks to predict transfusions for all inpatient operations and finds a single ANN model can predict >75% of the patients who will require transfusion and 70% of those who will not.
Cost-Effectiveness of Routine Type and Screens in Select Endonasal Skull Base Surgeries
TLDR
Routine preoperative T/S does not represent a cost-effective practice for common endonasal skull base procedures, and a selective T/s policy for high-risk patients may reduce costs.
The Utility of Comorbidity Indices in Assessing Head and Neck Surgery Outcomes: A Systematic Review.
TLDR
Despite inconsistencies in the literature, CIs provide insights into the impact of comorbidities on outcomes in HNS, and should be employed as an adjunct in the preoperative assessment of HNS patients.

A model for predicting transfusion requirements in head and neck surgery
TLDR
Patients have become more reluctant to receive transfusions, they frequently request preoperative autologous blood donation (PABD), however, only 50% or less of the donated blood is ultimately transfused while the remainder is discarded.
Prognostic significance of perioperative blood transfusion in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma
TLDR
To investigate the effect of perioperative allogeneic transfusion on survival in stage II–IV squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, a consecutive series of 105 patients undergoing primary tumor resection and neck dissection are studied.
Audit of blood transfusion policy in head and neck surgery.
TLDR
100 patient records have been examined retrospectively to outline the problems with blood transfusion policy in head and neck surgery and a recommended 'new policy' suggested.
Blood transfusion and survival after laryngectomy for laryngeal carcinoma.
TLDR
A study of 240 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx undergoing laryngectomy to assess the effect of per-operative blood transfusion on survival.
Validation of a transfusion prediction model in head and neck cancer surgery.
TLDR
The TPRA model identifies patients at low or high risk for allogeneic transfusion and provides guidelines for preoperative counseling regarding the risk of receiving a transfusion.
The Effects of Epoetin Alfa on Transfusion Requirements in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Prospective, Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled Study
TLDR
The efficacy of perioperative recombinant human erythropoietin (r‐HuEPO, epoetin alfa) in stimulating hematopoiesis and reducing allogeneic blood transfusion requirements in major head and neck cancer surgery is evaluated.
Predictive factors for perioperative blood transfusions in laparoscopic colorectal surgery
TLDR
Preoperative Charlson score, hemoglobin level, carcinoma, and lower rectum pathologies were found to be independent risk factors for PBT in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery and evaluation of these risk factors prior to surgery may be helpful in selecting the patients who could benefit from possible alternatives to perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion.

Autologous and heterologous blood transfusion in head and neck cancer surgery.
TLDR
Autologous blood products should be used during head and neck cancer surgery if possible when transfusion is necessary and not just during perioperative blood transfusion, as is currently recommended.
