HOW CAN PATIENT BLOOD MANAGEMENT IMPROVE QUALITY OF CARE IN GYNAECOLOGICAL PATIENTS?

Presented during the SEUD online week

Iron deficiency and anaemia in the gynaecology setting are highly prevalent conditions that are associated with increased risks of postoperative mortality and morbidity. In this symposium, PBM is presented as a key strategy to optimise anaemia management in this patient population with practical guidance on how clinical outcomes could be improved.
