| Abstract | Background Anemia is a frequently reported and commonly documented issue in intensive care units. In surgical intensive care units, more than 90% of patients are found to be anemic. It is a hematologic factor that contributes to extended mechanical ventilation, sepsis, organ failure, longer hospitalizations in critical care units, and higher mortality. Thus, this study aimed to determine the incidence and identify factors associated with anemia in elective surgical patients admitted to the surgical intensive care unit. Methods A retrospective follow-up study involving 422 hospitalized patients was carried out between December 2019 and December 2022 in the surgical intensive care unit after elective surgery at Tikur-Anbessa Specialized Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Data were gathered from the patients’ charts, and study participants were chosen using methods of systematic random sampling. SPSS 26 (the statistical software for social science, version 26) was used to analyze the data. Bivariable and multivariable binary logistic regression were used to examine associations between variables. Results The incidence of anemia in elective surgical patients admitted to the intensive care unit was 69.9% (95% CI 65.4–74.5%). American Society of Anesthesiologists’ class III (ASA III) [AOR: 8.53, 95% CI 1.92–13.8], renal failure [AOR:2.53, 95% CI (1.91–5.81)], malignancy [AOR: 2.59, 95% CI (1.31–5.09)], thoracic surgery [AOR: 4.07, 95% CI (2.11–7.87)], urologic surgery [AOR: 6.22, 95% CI (2.80–13.80)], and neurosurgery [AOR: 4.51, 95% CI (2.53–8.03)] were significantly associated with anemia in surgical patients admitted to the intensive care unit. Conclusion More than two-thirds of the intensive care unit-admitted surgical patients experienced anemia. An American Society of Anesthesiologists’ (ASA III score), renal failure, malignancy, thoracic surgery, urologic surgery, and neurosurgery were significantly associated with this condition. Early identification helps to institute preventive and therapeutic measures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
