The Turkish National Perioperative Transfusion Study (TULIP TS) was conducted by The Turkish Society of Anesthesiologists' Multicentre Clinical Trials Network.

TULIP TS included 6481 patients undergoing major elective surgery, from 61 study sites across the country.

Transfusion practices of clinicians working at diverse surgical fields; differences between current transfusion practices and patient blood management strategies; the areas for improvement and the obstacles that could prevent change were evaluated and identified.
