Summary

The decision for red cell transfusion is usually made empirically by clinicians. We aim to perform a two-year retrospective audit of obstetric red cell transfusions at a tertairy women's hospital to evaluate the (1) incidence of obstetric red cell transfusion, (2) indications for transfusion and (3) haemoglobin triggers and targets of transfusion. Obstetric patients who were given red cell or whole blood transfusion during their pregnancy and who delivered a live or still birth between 1 Jan 2014 to 31 Dec 2015 are included in the analysis. Findings of this study would provide insights into transfusion practice and appropriateness of obstetric red cell transfusion at a tertiary obstetric hospital in Singapore.
