Trends in perioperative RBC transfusion from index cases in five surgical specialties
July 2018—In recent years, greater attention has been given to patient blood management. While contemporary national guidelines recommend restrictive red blood cell transfusion, it is not known whether such transfusions have decreased in surgical patients. Approximately 11 million RBC transfusions are performed annually, and two-thirds of those are for patients in the perioperative period.

July 2018—How a geospacial tracking system is closing the distance at Michigan lab: This summer, when the Michigan Medicine Department of Pathology moves the last of its laboratories to a new campus four-and-a-half miles from the existing University Hospital laboratories in Ann Arbor, it will kick its new PathTrack Lean-influenced real-time geospatial tracking system into high gear. Developing the system, which will monitor an anticipated 6,000 to 10,000 specimens every day, has been “a monumental effort,” says Ulysses J. Balis, MD, director of the health system’s division of pathology informatics.
