  38. Blood management in the cath labSummary (1) • Patients with acute ischemic heart disease and those undergoing cath/intervention are at high risk for bleeding/transfusion • Antithrombotic therapy to reduce complications • Arteriotomy • Bleeding and transfusions have emerged as an important events that are associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and costs

  39. Blood management in the cath labSummary (2) • Reducing ischemic events while minimizing bleeding and transfusion risk is a clinical priority • Strategies that achieve this balance are associated with improved survival • The optimal transfusion strategy is not known…but prevention is the best approach • Appropriate choice/dosing of antithrombotics • Radial approach
