ABSTRACT
Blood transfusion is an essential medical procedure that can save a patient's life. But, in the near future, it is anticipated that blood transfusion products will be lacking in Korea. Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an evidence-based, mult-idisciplinary approach to optimizing the care of patients who might need transfusion. This goal is fulfilled by clinically managing or preserving the patient's own blood instead of imprudently resorting to allogeneic blood. It can be said that Korea just begun the journey toward the PBM implementation. However, strong support from the government and endeavors from professional societies will make rapid and substantial success in implementation of PBM in Korea.
