ABSTRACT

Blood components are a scarce and expensive resource. Therefore, there is a need to continuously monitor blood utilization and audit the transfusion practices to identify key areas of concern for blood usage. Aim Assessment of utilisation of blood and blood components through C/T ratio (crossmatch/transfusion ratio). Material and methods A retrospective survey of the blood ordering practice conducted over a period of one year from January 2022 to December 2022 in SMHS blood centre, Gmc Srinagar. Results: A total of 16,570 requests for cross matching of blood and its components were received. Out of these, 11,123units were transfused. The C/T ratio and transfusion index were 1.4 and 0.7 respectively. Conclusion: The blood transfusion quality indicators including CT ratio and TI of the present study demonstrated efficient blood utilisation.

Keywords: Cross-match/Transfusion ratio; Transfusion index; MSBOS.
