An Insight Toward Better of Blood Services; Bioethical Review

Abstract

Health services are efforts organized alone or together in an organization to maintain and improve health, prevent and cure diseases and restore the health of individuals, families, groups or communities in order to realize optimal public health status. Blood services are health efforts that utilize human blood as a basic material for humanitarian purposes and not for commercial purposes. Blood is an important therapeutic product for human life, and its quality and safety must be guaranteed. The doctor's decision to give a transfusion is often assumed with the worst possibility that can occur, so it will require more time and effort to crossmatch. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of blood ordering and transfusion administration by clinicians in elective surgery patient services. This research is normative with a qualitative approach. Qualitative research uses a statutory approach, a concept approach, and a case approach. Data collection techniques using literature reviews from primary and secondary data sources. The results showed that the maximum blood ordering schedule (MBOS) play a role in increasing the effectiveness of blood ordering and transfusing blood. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for blood ordering and blood donor information systems need to be developed to improve the effectiveness of blood transfusion services at the Blood Transfusion Unit (UTD). Doctors who request blood for transfusion must be consistent with the existing SOP, be clear in writing the patient's indication on the transfusion request sheet, and give more consideration to the number of blood bags requested in accordance with the appropriate needs analysis.
