With the onset and continued presence of the COVID-19 pandemic, global healthcare is challenged with critical shortages of equipment, facilities and impediments to blood supply. Implementation of PBM practices can help in this endeavor by focusing on evidence-based bundles of care to optimize both medical and surgical patients, thus limiting or eliminating the need for blood transfusions.
This webinar series will help in this endeavor by bringing the latest PBM information to healthcare providers globally.
