Abstract

We analyzed preoperative blood preparation and intraoperative blood transfusion in Kagawa Prefectural Central Hospital and evaluated the effectiveness of maximum surgical blood order schedule (MSBOS) and Type and Screen (T&S). Forty seven kinds of surgery were performed on 1,283 cases from May, 1991 to April, 1992. Transfusion was performed in 179 cases of them. All of 1,884 units of blood that had been prepared, were crossmatched and 1,078 of them were actually transfused. The Crossmatched to Transfused ratio (C/T ratio) was 1.71. If we adopted MSBOS and T&S in 13 elective surgery, 766 units of blood and labour work for preoperative blood preparation could have been saved. MSBOS and T&S are beneficial for efficient usage of blood transfusion in surgery.
