π©Έ Hematology, Coagulation & Transfusion covers blood products, anticoagulation, coagulopathies, and transfusion reactions β essential for the EDAIC Part I and perioperative safety in high-risk patients.
π What Youβll Learn
Effective perioperative bleeding and transfusion management is vital in anesthesia and intensive care. This module provides a comprehensive review of hematologic principles and practical algorithms that underpin safe clinical decisions in high-risk scenarios. Topics include:
π Blood Component Therapy β Indications and dosing for RBCs, FFP, platelets, cryoprecipitate
π¨ Massive Transfusion Protocols (MTP) β Ratios, triggers, calcium management, and point-of-care testing
βοΈ Anticoagulant & Antiplatelet Management β Reversal strategies, timing of discontinuation, bridging
π§ͺ Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT) β Pathophysiology, diagnosis (4Ts score), and management
𧬠Coagulopathies & Bleeding Disorders β Inherited (e.g. hemophilia, vWD) and acquired causes
β Transfusion Reactions β Hemolytic, febrile, TRALI, TACO, and anaphylaxis recognition & response
π Whatβs Included
