Posted January 9, 20205 yr comment_79336 We are currently building the Bridge system for transfusion documentation. I know AABB and CAP standards require "amount transfused" to be in the patient record. Does anyone know if this is by individual unit transfused or a cumulative amount?

January 10, 20205 yr comment_79353 For routine transfusions, each transfusion should include the volume of the product given. In massive transfusions, however, it is often common for them to track/document just the total cumulative volume of each type of product given during the massive bleed event.
