Median (IQR) hemoglobin concentrations prior to starting RRT were similar between the treatment groups. However, babies on PD only received a blood transfusion on a median (quartiles) of 0% (0–0) of the days they were on dialysis (only 15% of these patients received a transfusion at all). This compares with those on NIDUS and CVVH who received transfusions on 43% (8, 67) and 67% (50,75) of days, respectively (eTable 4
