Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
To validate a predictive model for the risk of receiving RBCs in this population. This model uses four preoperative values (haemoglobin levels, tumour volume, previous craniotomy in the same spot, and number of craniotomies foreseen). The investigators would like to create an online data collection tool and calculator.
