International Consensus Conference on Patient Blood Management (ICC-PBM) 2018

Event details

At this event, international experts will present evidence summaries to a multi-disciplinary panel and an audience of over 250 stakeholders, consolidating the available knowledge and concluding on recommendations. The Centre for Evidence-Based Practice (CEBaP) of the Belgian Red Cross followed a rigorous scientific process by systematically reviewing the available PBM literature, condensing these into evidence summaries using the GRADE Approach to assess the quality of the evidence. The Scientific Committee members have oversaw the work and checked all the summaries.
The scope of the conference is:

Red Blood Cell Transfusion Triggers
Pre-Operative Anemia
Education, Implementation and Maintenance of PBM.

Besides the rigorous and transparent scientific process, this conference is unique due to its international collaboration: the consortium of organisers spans European, American, Canadian and Australian organizations in the field of blood transfusion, all willing to contribute to furthering patient blood management.
