ABSTRACT

Introducao/Objetivo: A analise automatizada da imuno-hematologia dos pacientes (tipagem sanguinea ABO e Pesquisa de anticorpos irregulares - PAI) e realizada rotineiramente em horarios pre-estabelecidos (amostras processadas em lotes a cada 1h30) em nosso servico. No entanto, para as solicitacoes transfusionais urgentes, as analises destas amostras devem ser priorizadas. Desta maneira, e realizada uma avaliacao medica de todas as solicitacoes de sangue e, dependendo da classificacao, os exames sao realizados imediatamente ou nos lotes de 1h30. O monitoramento desse processo garante a qualidade e a seguranca do servico, considerando que o aumento das solicitacoes urgentes impacta diretamente na rotina do laboratorio. Neste estudo, analisamos nossa experiencia de 5 anos de transfusao por meio de dois tipos de indicadores. Metodos: Todos os pedidos de transfusao de sangue sao pre-classificados pelo departamento medico de acordo com sua urgencia clinica, atraves do uso de marcadores coloridos. O marcador amarelo indica o pedido de transfusao principalmente para pacientes em cirurgia, que tenham amostras coletadas no prazo de 72 horas apos a transfusao e apresentem PAI negativo. O marcador azul indica a solicitacao para pacientes nao cadastrados anteriormente no banco de sangue ou sem resultado de PAI dentro de 72 hs. O percentual de cada marcador (amarelo ou azul) em relacao ao numero total de solicitacoes foi analisado mensalmente de 2017 a 2021 como indicadores. Os limites maximos aceitos foram de 2,0% e 5,0% para os indicadores amarelo e azul, respectivamente. Os resultados foram analisados utilizando-se o teste t e p < 0,05 foi considerado significativo. Resultados: O indicador amarelo mostrou uma reducao gradual no percentual de 2017 para 2021 (2,9% em 2017 para 0,7% em 2021) e, consequentemente, observou-se uma evolucao progressiva no percentual dos meses em que a meta foi atingida (2017: 0%, 2021: 100-%). Para o indicador azul, tambem foi observada uma reducao do percentual de solicitacoes (2017: 5,7% e 2021: 3,6%), porem, a meta somente foi atingida em todos os meses do ano de 2020. Foi observado que as diferencas estatisticas ocorreram entre 2017/2018 (Indicador amarelo p = 0,01, Indicador azul p = 0,03) e tambem entre 2019/2020 (Indicador amarelo p = 0,04, Indicador azul p = 0,01). Discussao: No primeiro periodo (2017/2018) a reducao foi atribuida ao treinamento medico/laboratorial para a classificacao adequada das solicitacoes e, no segundo periodo (2019/2020) alem de um rigido acompanhamento do indicador, houve tambem a reducao das cirurgias eletivas e emergenciais devido a situacao imposta pela pandemia COVID-19. Conclusao: Segundo os dados apresentados, houve uma reducao significativa das solicitacoes de transfusao urgente entre 2017 e 2021. Essa reducao somente foi possivel de ser alcancada atraves da avaliacao sistematica dos indicadores. Assim, o uso desta ferramenta e de extrema importancia para garantir a gestao da rotina laboratorial, especialmente em situacoes urgentes, nas quais contribui diretamente para a seguranca do processo.

ABSTRACT

Background/Case Studies: Automated analysis of patients' immunohematology (ABO blood typing and Irregular Antibody Screening-IAS) is routinely performed at pre-established times (samples processed in batches every 1 h 30) in our service. However for urgent requests, it is necessary a faster approach. Therefore, a medical classification of all blood requests is performed and depending on these classifications the tests are performed immediately or in the 1 h 30 batches. Monitoring these processes ensures the quality and safety of the service considering that an increase in urgent requests directly impact the lab routine. In this study, we analyzed our 5-year experience transfusion urgencies through two kinds of KPI (Key Performance Indicator). Study Design/Methods: All Blood Transfusion requests are pre-classified by medical department according to its clinical urgency using colored tags. The yellow tag indicates transfusion requests mainly for surgery patients, who have samples collected within 72 h of the transfusion and presented a negative IAS. The blue tag indicates request for patients not previously registered in the blood bank or without IAS within 72 h. The % of each tag (yellow or blue) in relation to the total number of requests was analyzed monthly from 2017 to 2021 as a KPI. The maximum % accepted were 2.0% and 5.0% for yellow and blue KPI, respectively. The results were analyzed using the t test and p < 0.05 was considered significant. Results/Findings: The yellow KPI showed a gradual reduction from 2017 to 2021, and consequently an evolution was observed in the % of months in which the target was reached (see table below). For the blue KPI, a reduction was also observed, however, the goal was only reached in all the months of 2020. It was observed that statistic differences occurred between 2017/2018 (yellow KPI p = 0.01, blue KPI p = 0.03) and also for 2019/2020 (yellow KPI p = 0.04, blue KPI p = 0.01). In the first period (2017/2018) the reduction was attributed to medical/laboratory training to properly classifying the requests and, in the second period (2019/2020) besides a rigid follow up of the KPI, there was also a reduction in elective and emergency surgeries due to the situation imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusion(s): According to the data shown, there was a significant reduction in urgent transfusion requests between 2017 and 2021. These decreases were only possible to be achieved through the systematic evaluation of the KPI. Thus, the use of this tool is extremely important to ensure the better management of the laboratory routine, especially in urgent situations, in which it directly contributes to ensuring the process safety.
