NCT02147795

Brief Summary

  • This epidemiological trial will determine whether the implementation of a PBM program is safe and effective in terms of clinical outcome compared to a pre-implementation cohort
  • Primary endpoint is a composite outcome comprising in-hospital myocardial infarction, stroke, acute renal failure, death of any cause, pneumonia and sepsis until discharge from hospital in patients before and after implementation of the PBM program.
  • Secondary endpoints are the length of stay on the intensive care unit, total hospital stay and the quantitative utilization of allogeneic RBC units, platelet concentrates, other blood products (e.g. fresh frozen (therapeutic) plasma), coagulations factors, and cell saver systems during hospital stay.
  • The primary aim is to prove non-inferiority of the intervention (PBM) group when compared with the control group stratified by center.
