EACTA Haemostasis and Transfusion Committee
Patient blood management (PBM) in cardiac surgery is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach that aims for maintenance of haemostasis and minimization of blood loss in patients who are at risk for allogeneic blood transfusion. PBM transcends individual medical disciplines, and consists of a chain of care that spans the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative period.
PBM in cardiac surgery should be considered as separate entity, as the interaction between the cardiothoracic surgeon, anaesthesiologist and clinical perfusionist, the surgical procedures, the unique patient characteristics and the impact of cardiopulmonary bypass distinguishes this discipline from other surgical specialties.
The mission of the subcommittee Haemostasis and Transfusion is to promote educational and research programmes in the field of PBM and to contribute to evidence-based guidance for the clinician in involved in cardiac surgery.
