Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce this Collection titled, "Editorial Board Members' Collection Series – Patient Blood Management: Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment". This issue will be a collection of papers from researchers invited by the Editorial Board Members. The aim is to provide a venue for networking and communication between Diagnostics and scholars in the field of Blood Management and Diagnosis.
Patient Blood Management (PBM) is a multimodal and multidisciplinary strategy aimed at minimizing the use of blood products and improving patient management and clinical outcomes. PBM aims to improve red blood cell mass, minimize blood loss, and optimize tolerance to anemia.
Certainly, the PBM approach leads to change in the practical culture of transfusion medicine and is a useful tool to reduce the risk of transfusion.
We hope that the document collection in this issue will provide insights the best strategies for promoting effective and sustainable implementation of PBM programs.
The information can come from both clinical practice and experimental research, but also from an accurate evaluation of the data published in the literature.
All papers will be published as fully open access after peer review.
