They did not exactly use 'stategies' to survive the long journey, the battles and the health risks. If we consider that even in the early 20th century more than half of all soldier's deaths were caused by disease, not battle wounds, we may safely assume that the Crusaders lost even most of their participants along the way and because of diseases.
The total number of casualties is somewhere between 1.5 and 3 million (no one kept an exact tally). Knights were probably better protected against travel hazards, being on horse and better than average armed, but the diseases would get them just as they did the common soldiers and camp followers.
In battle they stood a decent chance of survival a) again because of their armament, b) because their Muslim adversaries quickly discovered that a living knight was worth a ransom, a dead knight worth nothing, so they tried to capture knights alive, not kill them.
