Our publication: German Patient Blood Management Network: effectiveness and safety analysis in 1.2 million patients<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n

The German PBM Network was founded in 2014 with the aim to implement PBM in Germany. When joining the PBM Network, the hospitals are supported with training material and standard operating procedures.<\/p>\n

In order to assess the effect of the PBM implementation, routine data of 1.2 million patients from 14 hospitals were evaluated. The analysis showed that the implementation of a PBM program can effectively reduce the consumption of red blood cell (RBC) units and the RBC transfusion rate in hospitals of different sizes. The reduction of RBC utilization is especially high in departments with high blood consumption (e.g. cardiac surgery, vascular surgery). In addition, PBM implementation was particularly effective in hospitals with initially high blood product consumption.<\/p>\n

Patient Blood Management is a clinical maxim to increase patient safety by optimising patient’s own blood resources<\/span><\/h3>\n

The day-to-day application of PBM in clinical routines is based on three measurement bundles, the three sustaining pillars of PBM.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The number of PBM initiatives is growing worldwide. In Germany, PBM was initially implemented at the University Hospitals Frankfurt, Bonn, Kiel and M\u00fcnster. With the initiation of the German PBM Network many additional hospitals were inspired to likewise implement PBM. Currently, Patient Blood Management is evolving to a major quality indicator in German hospitals. The European and World PBM networks were founded to foster the implementation of Patient Blood Management on a global scale. Since 2011<\/a> the World Health Organization<\/a> urges its member states to support the implementation of PBM.<\/p>\n
