Practical Transfusion Medicine - Erica M Wood

. .

Résumé :

Provides practical, evidence-based guidance for managing transfusion practice and patient care in patients who may require transfusion.

The rapid evolution of transfusion medicine, shaped by advances in science, technology, and global practice, demands an authoritative and up-to-date resource. Practical Transfusion Medicine, Seventh Edition, meets this need by offering a comprehensive and clinically grounded guide to the principles and practice of transfusion medicine. Building on the trusted foundations of previous editions, it balances depth of coverage with accessibility, making it an indispensable resource for trainee and practising haematologists, clinical and scientific staff working in transfusion services, and clinicians treating patients who may require transfusion.

This new edition reflects the considerable changes in the field since 2022, incorporating new sections on patient blood management, cellular and tissue therapy, and organ transplantation. A dedicated chapter on cardiorespiratory complications including transfusion-associated circulatory overload highlights their importance as a complication of transfusion, whilst the restructured clinical practice section offers a more focused approach to transfusion management across medical, surgical, and haematology patients. With contributions from leading international experts, the text provides evidence-based insights supported by numerous charts, tables, and algorithms.

Practical Transfusion Medicine, Seventh Edition:

• Integrates scientific, clinical, and regulatory perspectives with global context
• Provides detailed coverage of transfusion-associated complications and their management
• Features expanded sections on patient blood management, tissue therapy, and transplantation
• Balances comprehensive detail with clarity, offering more depth than handbooks yet more accessibility than reference tomes
• Addresses both acute clinical decision-making and long-term patient management

Practical Transfusion Medicine, Seventh Edition, is essential for postgraduate and specialist trainees in haematology preparing for examinations such as the FRCPath in the UK, as well as for trainees in the many specialties where transfusions are used. It is equally valuable as a reference tool for established clinicians treating patients requiring transfusion and for clinical and scientific staff working in transfusion services....
