What this Trial Is About
Currently, there are no multicenter studies on platelet transfusion for SAT patients, and the benefits and risks of platelet transfusion still require further validation based on large-sample data. In summary, investigating the correlation between platelet transfusion during ICU stay and 28-day mortality in SAT patients, as well as evaluating the impact of platelet transfusion on bleeding, thrombotic events, and inflammation control, is of great significance for optimizing SAT management strategies. This study aims to analyze the effect of platelet transfusion on the prognosis of SAT patients, thereby providing an evidence-based foundation for clinical decision-making.
