Study Evaluating Multifaceted Support for the Implementation of Recommendations for the Prevention and Management of Anemia in Intensive Care Units

STOP-A is a prospective, multicenter data study aimed at demonstrating the impact of multifaceted support for the implementation of recommendations on the prevention and management of anemia in intensive care, compared to previous practices, on hospital mortality in adult patients hospitalized in intensive care for ≥2 days. The timing of implementation in each center is determined randomly by stepped-wedge randomization. As such, this is a pragmatic study that meets the international PRECIS-2 criteria.
