Funded Activity Summary

Blood transfusion has a central role in many areas of clinical medicine. Despite its widespread use, there are large areas where evidence to inform clinical practice is limited. The aim of this proposed research is to investigate the current use of blood products in clinical medicine. Data on blood transfusion will be linked with existing clinical registries to examine how transfusion practice influences patient outcomes in a range of clinical areas including trauma, surgery and critical care.
