Blood Utilization Review

Blood Utilization Review is a process hospitals use to ensure that blood products, like red blood cells or platelets, are used appropriately and efficiently. This review examines whether blood transfusions are necessary for each patient based on their medical condition. By evaluating treatment decisions, healthcare providers can reduce unnecessary transfusions, minimize risks, and lower costs. Ultimately, this ensures that patients receive the right amount of blood products when needed, while also maintaining safety and resource management in healthcare settings.
