Possible reasons for declined (red) blood use
October 9, 2015 | 13
• National guideline “Blood Transfusion” (2004, 2011 revised version) including Patient
Blood Management
• Quality Act for Health Care institutes and national hemovigilance office “TRIP”
(Transfusion and Transplantation Reactions In Patients; founded 2001)
• Benchmark blood use between Dutch Hospitals organized by Sanquin
• Reimbursement system for blood products in the Netherlands
• Cost reduction health care -> hospitals have to economize (6%) and quality
indicators Dutch Society of Surgeons -> concentration of care

What is Patient Blood Management (PBM)?

![Page 15: Patient Blood Management in the Netherlands: …...Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to optimising the care of patients who might or do](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071112/5fe7d34f8001651e1c1b23c5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Patient Blood Management defenition
Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an
evidence-based, multidisciplinary
approach to optimising the care of
patients who might or do need blood
transfusion.
![Page 16: Patient Blood Management in the Netherlands: …...Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to optimising the care of patients who might or do](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071112/5fe7d34f8001651e1c1b23c5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Three pillars of Patient Blood Management(http:///www.health.wa.gov.au/bloodmanagement/)
1. optimising the patient’s own blood
2. minimising surgical blood loss and bleeding
3. harnessing and optimising the patient-specific
physiological reserve of anaemia (including restrictive
transfusion thresholds)

National Guideline “Blood Transfusion”
• Effective use of blood products
• so-called 4-5-6 rule
(depending on the presence of co-morbidity, the threshold for
RBC transfusion varies between 4.0 mmol/L (6.4 g/dL) and 6.0
mmol/L (9,7 g/dL)
• alternatives for red blood cell transfusion
pharmaceuticals, cell savers
• improvement of operation techniques

Alternatives for blood cell transfusion
• Iron (oral or IV) -> pre-operative anaemia
• Erytropoietin -> pre-operative anaemia
• Cell savers -> intra-operative/ post-operative
• Tranexamic acid (cheap)-> pre- and during operation, IV and topical

Rationale
• Hip- and knee-replacement surgery result in large blood
losses
• Ageing population will result in 3 fold increase of joint
replacements in 2030 (> 100.000 per year)
• Blood sparing modalities are very popular and much
investigated
• However:
1. NO evidence on combined effect of several modalities
2. NO evidence on effect of restrictive transfusion trigger
3. Most studies lack power, are methodologically poor

General results
• RBC transfusions in 11.6% of 2442 (n=284)
• If transfused: median of 2 RBC (range 1- 27)
• Intra-operatively n= 37 (range 1-12)
• 0-14 days n= 246 (range 1-11)
• 14 days-3 months n= 43 (range 1-27)
• Due to heterogeneity of revision patients, primary
surgery group is separately reported in case of RBC use
• In case of cost analysis all patients were evaluated

Conclusions
• Significant red blood cell (RBC) reduction by Epo, however not cost-effective
• Neither red blood cell- nor cost-reduction by autologous blood reinfusion (i.e. cell saver or
postoperative drain re-infusion)

Meta-analysis cell savers

Outcome: Number of patients
exposed to allogeneic
RBC transfusion
![Page 34: Patient Blood Management in the Netherlands: …...Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to optimising the care of patients who might or do](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071112/5fe7d34f8001651e1c1b23c5/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Conclusions meta-analysis cell saving
Cell Saving significantly reduces• the need for allogeneic RBC transfusion, and
• the volume of RBC transfused
However, in RCTs published more recently (2010-2012), Cell
Saving does neither reduce the need for allogeneic RBC
transfusion nor the volume of RBC transfused in both hip and
knee surgery
![Page 35: Patient Blood Management in the Netherlands: …...Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to optimising the care of patients who might or do](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071112/5fe7d34f8001651e1c1b23c5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Tranexamic acid to prevent/ diminish bleeding
• TXA is a synthetic lysine analogue antifibrinolytic agent. It is an
antifibrinolytic that competitively inhibits the activation of plasminogen to
plasmin, by binding to specific sites of both plasminogen and plasmin, a
molecule responsible for the degradation of fibrin.
• Oral, intravenous or topical administration

Use of tranexamic acid
• in 2015 many randomized trials/ meta-analysis on

• Trauma
• Postpartum haemorrhage
• Orthopaedic surgery (total hip and knee, spine)
• Upper gastro-intestinal bleeding
• Open heart surgery

Conclusions
• Patient Blood Management = Good Clinical Practice
• A simple rule (4-5-6) may safe blood use
• Alternatives for blood transfusion may be useful, but
• Evidence is needed to implement PBM properly
• PBM had been investigated particularly in surgical patients, but
• Most red blood cells go to medical indications
More research is needed on the topic of PBM
