Abstract

To evaluate the effectiveness of anemia management and audit with feedback practices in reducing overuse of RBC transfusion. Methods: This review follows the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Laboratory Medicine Best Practice Systematic Review (A-6) method. We searched the literature and solicited unpublished studies on practices to reduce overuse of RBC transfusions as measured by reductions in units transfused and proportion of patients transfused.
