Abstract
A countrywide study over the eras indicates overuse of blood transfusion can have considerable risks to patients accompanied by significant costs of blood transfusion for patients, hospitals, and health-care systems. Besides, more than 30% of the world's population is anemic. Typically, blood transfusion helps continue suitable oxygen transfer in anemia, i.e., more and more documented as a threatening factor with several adverse outcomes including long hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality. Transplantation of allogeneic blood is thus like a two-edged sword. There is no doubt that the blood transfusion is a life-saving treatment, but it should be underpinned by much of up-to-date health-care services. The new theory considered for patient blood management (PBM) also discusses the timely application of evidence-based surgical and clinical theories and focuses on patient outcomes. Furthermore, PBM involves a multidisciplinary methodology to reduce unnecessary transfusions, minimize costs, and cut risks.
