A reduction in red blood cell transfusion for AUIGIB would have substantial financial implications. In 2013-14, an estimated 204,000 units of red blood cells were issued for AUGIB, costing Â£123.31 per unit. A 13% reduction, as shown in this trial, would lead to annual savings to the NHS of about Â£3.3m for the blood alone, which excludes laboratory and administration costs.
In November 2012, Timeless Media Group released the complete first season of The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams on DVD. The complete second season followed in February 2013.

This sitcom was first aired on September 16, 1993 and ended on May 13, 2004 (approximately 11 years) had 11 seasons with 263 episodes. This is one of the longest tv series aired on TV. Add to that the fact that Frasier was a spin off of Cheers, which also ran for 11 years, you have a total of 22 years of great television from the same writers and producers. Very impressive.
