Blood managment during pandemic -hospital GNA G. GENNHMATAS
Summary:
The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has required healthcare systems to implement strategies for effective healthcare delivery, while managing blood supply chain disruptions and shortages created by infection-limiting practices that has reduced blood donations. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for Patient Blood Management guidelines to be mainstream practice. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on blood donations, both in cancellation of blood drives and in social distancing rules that affect the number of donors allowed at blood drives and blood centers.
It is highly important to note that there have been no documented cases of transfusion-transmitted respiratory viruses, such as the coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2. However, based upon previous corona virus epidemics, there is a vital impact on blood adequacy, due to blood donor’s reluctance to donate blood in a hospital setting, resulting in a blood shortage.
The duration of the pandemic is still unknown and the challenges for blood availability will remain present for an unknown duration.
Pandemics and active crises act as a catalyst for innovation and implementation of novel strategies to overcome barriers for effective healthcare delivery. Blood management is also affected since it plays a crucial role for enhanced patient optimization.
