Risk profile | Minimum hemoglobin (conversion factor 0.621) |
|---|---|
< 40 years no additional risk factors no organ function impairment | < 5.5 g/dl or 3.4 mmol/l |
≥ 40 years no additional risk factors no organ function impairment | < 6 g/dl or 3.7 mmol/l |
organ function impairment | < 7 g/dl or 4.3 mmol/l |
coronary artery disease with no ischemia carotid artery stenosis with no ischemia history of transient ischemic attack | < 8 g/dl or 5.0 mmol/l |
coronary artery disease with ischemia e.g. troponin elevation carotid artery stenosis with ischemia history of stroke | < 10 g/dl or 6.2 mmol/l |
