Preoperative Anaemia Identification, Assessment and Management Case Study [1]

The preoperative anaemia identification, assessment and management case study is intended to inform healthcare practitioners, health educators, health service managers and policy makers about preoperative anaemia screening. This resource provides a wealth of ideas and links to help hospitals use clinical practice improvement methods to implement an anaemia screening clinic based on evidence-based recommendations in the Patient Blood Management Guidelines: Module 2 – Perioperative [2].
