Perioperative Blood Management
Perioperative Blood Management (PBM) is a multi-disciplinary, evidence-based, comprehensive approach to ensure that the Right Patient gets the Right Amount of the Right Blood Product at the Right Time. PBM includes compiling an individualized program from a range of services, technology and equipment that best meets the needs of your facility. Suncoast Perfusion Services allows you to obtain all services, technology and equipment you need for a high quality PBM program from one provider. Suncoast Perfusion Services will also continue to give you support and guidance when and where needed.
Obtain Better Patient Outcomes by Limiting Allogenic Transfusion Risk
Many lives have been saved by blood transfusions. Like so many other treatments, there is risk involved in blood transfusion. By implementing a perioperative blood management program and strategically minimizing allogenic blood transfusions, you can help promote better patient outcomes in the following ways:
-
Reduce infection rate
-
Decrease length of stay
-
Eliminate transfusion reactions
-
Reduce administrative errors
Decrease Cost by Effectively Managing your Blood Product Supply with our PBM Program
The blood supply is a limited resource that should be conserved whenever possible. Implementing a PBM program protects this precious resource and provides a safe and cost effective alternative to allogeneic transfusions.
The cost of blood is significant and always increasing. The graph to the right shows the economic benefits of using the fixed cost of Autotransfusion services vs. incurring the rising cost of each unit during and after surgery. This table assumes that the total acquisition and processing cost per unit is $761.00. Even if only a single unit is required, Autotransfusion is economically viable. No matter how many units are processed the charge remains the same for ATS.
Blood Management Solutions that Improve Patient Outcomes and Lower Costs
Suncoast Perfusion Services has teamed up with companies such as Haemonetics to provide a completely comprehensive suite of blood management solutions to meet cost-reduction demands, reduce waste, and provide a higher standard of patient care.
To help our customers achieve a higher standard of patient care, we guide you through an effective blood management approach which includes services, devices, actionable information to guide transfusion practices and ongoing measurements to change behavior. Suncoast uses a data –driven approach in helping to establish best practices in blood management and partnering with our customers to implement recommendations that optimize the facilities blood product usage.
Information Management
Each facility is unique and therefore data collection must be the starting point for an effective blood management program. Using IOL, our team will compile 3 years of past data from your separate hospital computer systems. The Suncoast team will then present the data along with a suggested plan of action to best optimize blood products and patient outcomes at your facility. We will continue to guide the blood management team as well as help in educating medical staff on new standards of care. We will continue to collect live data from your facility so that we can show improvements, changes in behavior and cost reductions.
