Haemovigilance Reporting

All adverse events that meet the national and state/territory requirements should be reported to the state/territory haemovigilance system and program. The state/territory health department collates the data and reports the de-identified minimum dataset in line with the Australian Haemovigilance Minimum Data Set. The NBA analyses the data and publishes the results.

Australia has a voluntary reporting process at a national level and consequently the information provided does not represent a complete data set.

Data in the following reports are in accordance with the National Blood Authority National Haemovigilance Data Dictionary (NHDD) 2010 or the Australian Haemovigilance Minimum Data Set (AHMDS) 2015.
