HealthTrust presents… “Code Crimson: Massive Transfusion Protocol”

The U.S. rate of severe maternal morbidity at delivery, as defined by a variety of conditions and procedures, increased 45 percent from 2006 through 2015. The cause of this adverse trend is complex and multi-factorial. A significant place to start in combating the current epidemic of maternal mortality in the United States is appropriately addressing maternal hemorrhage. The presenter offers an evidenced-based approach to saving maternal lives when the inevitable life-threatening hemorrhage does occur.

Learning Objectives for Nurses, Pharmacists & Lab clinicians  |  At the end of this session, participants should be able to:

  1. Define risk factors which contribute to catastrophic maternal hemorrhage
  2. Recall why massive transfusion protocols are physiologic and effective
  3. Explain the benefits of utilizing an evidence-based care team approach to aid patients in extremis
  4. Review the Joint Commission provision of care, treatment and service standards for Maternal safety regarding hemorrhage.
