Survey Development• A survey was developed covering
– Blood Product Usage
– Serologic Techniques and Transfusion Protocols
– Transfusion Reactions
– Lab Management
• The survey revised – Demographics updated– Survey has new questions – Survey repeated some questions
![Page 4: Preliminary Results Summary of the Survey of Blood Transfusion Practice in Indiana 2006](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/568150a3550346895dbea560/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Survey• The survey was emailed and faxed to Indiana
Hospital Transfusion Services
• The hospitals were asked to respond
– fax the completed survey (OR)
– Email back the completed survey
• The surveys were accepted for three weeks
– August 10 – September 1, 2006
