Winter is always a difficult time for blood stocks. Avoidable transfusion and inappropriate use of O D-negative red blood cells remain a challenge for organisations, particularly considering the recent Amber alert issued by NHS Blood & Transplant.
Join this webinar on Tuesday 6 December 2022 (13:00–14:00 GMT) where SHOT Working Expert Group members and representatives from the four UK Blood Services will provide an overview of Patient Blood Management (PBM) activities and share key learning points.
This one-hour webinar is free to access and will include:
- A 40-minute presentation about avoidable transfusion and inappropriate use of O D-negative red blood cells.
- A 15-minute interactive Q&A session.
This webinar is relevant to all healthcare professionals involved in transfusion and patient blood management – nursing staff, laboratory staff, clinicians, transfusion practitioners, as well as haemovigilance and risk management specialists.
