Effectiveness of the entire blood transfusion process with and without a clinical decision support system: a retrospective before-and-after study
To evaluate the effectiveness of a clinical decision support system in improving management of the entire blood transfusion process using a retrospective before-and-after comparative study.
Approach:
Key Findings:
Completeness of transfusion records increased from 97.1% to 99.1% (P < 0.05).
Documentation time significantly decreased (P < 0.001).
A statistically significant difference in the incidence of transfusion adverse reactions was observed (χ2 = 9.41, P < 0.05; OR = 1.39, 95% CI: 1.13–1.73).
Researchers found gene therapy produced the highest modeled health benefit, but haploidentical stem cell transplantation offered better value at current prices
