Overview
The aim of patient blood management is to reduce the risks of perioperative anemia- and transfusion-associated complications by limiting the use and the need for allogeneic blood transfusion.
Description
Background of this multimodal, multidisciplinary concept are numerous studies that have shown an association between preoperative anemia and/or a perioperative transfusion and a worse treatment outcome concerning morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis and therapy of preoperative anemia and the use of machine autotransfusion are central components of this integrated supply concept based on the S3 guideline "Präoperative Anämie", which need to be incorporated into the clinical processes.
Therefore, all patients undergoing elective surgery with a probability of transfusion > 10% receive an anemia detection during their premedication visit. Patients who are insured with BARMER also get anemia diagnostic and therapy. Patients of other health insurances receive a recommendation to anemia diagnostics and therapy sent to surgical department. Based on an analysis of the primary and secondary endpoints of this prospective cohort study, the implementation of the mentioned guideline-compliant measures in everyday clinical practice and the effectiveness of an IV-PBM (Patient blood management) are to be examined. Thus, if necessary, other health insurances could join the patient blood management (PBM) IV concept. The aim is to provide evidence of an improved quality of treatment and the generalized application of PBM measures within the scope of the innovative PBM care form described.
