Here’s the final post on my series covering serial hemoglobin testing in the management of solid organ injury. We developed our first iteration of a solid organ injury practice guideline at Regions Hospital way back in 2002. It was borne out of the enormous degree of clinical variability I saw among my partners. We based it on what little was publicly available, including an EAST practice…
