Blood Shortage Blood Bulletin Published

By America's Blood Centers

America’s Blood Center’s has published the March 2022 edition of the Blood Bulletin, titled “Blood Shortages — How Hospitals Can Help.” This issue of Blood Bulletin discusses: how the COVID-19 pandemic has worsened chronic issues with nationwide blood shortages; the importance of blood donation being encouraged and actively supported; the need for transfusion service laboratories to have standard operating procedures (SOPs) for management of blood component shortages.”

The Blood Bulletin was written by Debra Smith, MD, PhD, Associate Medical Director at Oklahoma Blood Institute; Nanci Fredrich, RN, BSN, MM, Transfusion Safety & Blood Management Officer at Versiti; Kirsten Alcorn, MD, Co-Chief Medical Officer at Bloodworks Northwest; Samantha Ngamsuntikul, MD, Associate Medical Director at South Texas Blood & Tissue Center, a subsidiary of BioBridge Global; Nancy Van Buren, MD, Medical Director at Innovative Blood Resources, a division of New York Blood Center. Contributors included Louis Katz, MD, Chief Medical Officer at ImpactLife; Richard Gammon, MD, Medical Director at One-Blood; Claudia Cohn, MD, PhD, Professor of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology at the University of Minnesota.
