Blood Conservation Strategies

Blood conservation strategies are methods used to reduce the need for blood transfusions during medical procedures. These strategies include optimizing the patient's own blood before surgery (like preoperative blood donation), minimizing blood loss through careful surgical techniques, and using medications to boost blood production or improve clotting. These approaches not only enhance patient safety and recovery but also ensure that blood supplies are preserved for those who truly need them. Overall, blood conservation promotes better health outcomes while addressing the challenges of blood shortages in healthcare.
