Overview

Observational study evaluated blood transfusion patterns in obstetrics and gynecology, suggesting issues in blood utilization.

Key Points

  • Transfusion rate was 3.28%, with obstetric hemorrhage as the leading indication, emphasizing the need for efficient practices.
  • The primary reason for transfusion was postpartum hemorrhage at 80.1%, followed by anemia, indicating critical obstetric needs.
  • A crossmatch-to-transfusion ratio of 7.98 highlighted inefficient blood utilization and is a target for improvement.
  • Patient blood management strategies may enhance anemia management and reduce unnecessary transfusions—critical for optimal patient care.
