Transfusion Practices in Intensive Care Units: a Hungarian Nationwide Survey

Sponsor: Pest County Flór Ferenc Hospital

Summary

The aim of our data analysis-based questionnaire study is to assess the daily transfusion practices used in the care of critically ill patients in intensive care units in Hungary. The rate and frequency of the application of physiological parameters (serum lactate level, central venous oxygen saturation and arteriovenous carbon dioxide difference, arteriovenous oxygen content difference) recommended as transfusion triggers in the international literature in daily practice will be assessed. The aim of our survey is not only to collect statistical data, but also to map practical experiences, knowledge, opinions and possible institutional differences. Our aim is to obtain a more comprehensive picture of the operation of the care system, including transfusion activities, and any possible different practices applied in individual institutions, based on the experiences and observations of colleagues directly involved in patient care.
