About this study

Study the influence of transfusion related Patient Blood Management Program actions on transfusion-related outcome measures and cost.

Read the detailed description

At the University Hospital of Zurich, an in-house designed monitoring and feedback system was introduced which electronically registers each transfusion of any allogeneic blood product, be it red blood cells, plasma or platelets as well as corresponding laboratory data. Results are reported quarterly to Department heads. The investigator analyzes whether the introduction of this monitoring and feedback system as part of a patient blood management Program has a significant influence on use of allogeneic blood product transfusions and transfusion-related costs, without compromising patient outcome.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of transfusions per participant

    Participant wich had transfusion will be identified and the administrative, financial and clinical data will be compared to participants without transfusions

    Measured: participants will be followed form date of hospital entry until date of discharge or date of death up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of transfusion of any blood product per participant

    Count of any blood products per case, QM Data

    Measured: participants will be followed form date of hospital entry until date of discharge or date of death up to 3 years

  2. Cost of any blood product per participant

    costs per case

    Measured: participants will be followed form date of hospital entry until date of discharge or date of death up to 3 years

  3. Survey of Patient Blood Management System

    clinical, financial,and administrative data of all participants will be reviewed on the focus on transfusions

    Measured: participants will be followed form date of hospital entry until date of discharge or date of death up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemorrhage, run by University of Zurich at 1 site in Switzerland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of transfusions per participant (time frame: participants will be followed form date of hospital entry until date of discharge or date of death up to 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Nov 2020.
