[An analysis of the status of surgical transfusion and a trial of maximum surgical blood order schedule (MSBOS) in Fukui Medical School Hospital]
Abstract
To evaluate the present status of surgical transfusion during operations, we computed the amount of preoperative preparation and intraoperative use of blood. And we examined cross-match to transfusion ratio (C/T ratio) and maximum surgical blood order schedule (MSBOS) based on the statistical data in our hospital. The result revealed that too much blood was prepared in our hospital. The amount of prepared blood was 12,825 units of which 2,419 units were transfused (1 unit = 200 ml of whole blood). The mean C/T ratio was 5.30. And a trial of MSBOS revealed that we could save 70% of the blood presently prepared. We are sure that the introduction of T & S and MSBOS will lead to more efficient transfusion in our hospital.
