  • Severe bleeding events are a common complication for critically ill patients with hematological cancers; a study analyzed data from 1012 such patients admitted to the ICU over 12 years.
  • Out of these patients, 10.8% experienced severe bleeding events after 3 days in the ICU, primarily from the gastrointestinal tract, which led to longer hospital stays and higher mortality rates.
  • Key predictors for these bleeding events included having chronic kidney disease and entering the ICU with an existing primary bleeding problem.

The study examined how the MC affects the objective and subjective measures of aerobic performance within untrained female participants and in comparison with untrained male participants assessed at similar time intervals.
