[The Hemovigilance Commission of the University Hospital Center]. [PDF]

open access: yesRevue medicale de Liege, 2000
As suggested by the National Blood Council, a Hemovigilance Committee was set up in the University Hospital of Liège in 1995. A multidisciplinary discussion takes place on any action aiming at the improvement of transfusion safety, and the follow-up of its implementation. The first issue to be discussed was the set up of a detailed documentation of all

Hemovigilance in Norway

Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2005

All of the blood banks in Norway have performed universal leukodepletion of cellular blood components since 2001. Approximately 200,000 whole blood donations are performed per year and approximately 250,000 blood components are transfused.

Pediatric Hemovigilance and Adverse Transfusion Reactions

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2021
Some types of transfusion reactions occur more frequently in the pediatric than the adult population. Allergic reactions are the most common, followed by nonhemolytic transfusion reactions; male children seem most susceptible to such reactions. Platelets are often implicated and pulmonary reactions are understudied in children.

Hemovigilance Today - The Facts and the Fictions

2022
Total quality management in blood collection and transfusion requires monitoring risks from ‘vein-to-vein’ i.e., from blood collector and manufacturer to transfusion at the bedside and back. Hemovigilance is a set of surveillance procedures covering the entire transfusion chain from the follow-up of recipients of transfusions to the donation of blood ...

Serious Hazards of Transfusion: A Decade of Hemovigilance in the UK

Transfusion Medicine Reviews, 2006
The Serious Hazards of Transfusion (SHOT) scheme is a UK-wide, independent, professionally led hemovigilance system focused on learning from adverse events. SHOT was established in 1996 as a confidential reporting system for significant transfusion-related events, building an evidence base to support blood safety policy decisions, clinical guidelines ...
