Overview
Haemovigilance is a system of actions, comprising detection, summary and analysis of information concerning severe adverse effects and events on the part of transfusion donors and recipients and epidemiological monitoring of blood donors. In the complex conception a clinical section, which means transfusion indication criteria, their control, good practice in the course of transfusion administration, is also included in the definition. System of reporting of adverse effects of transfusions, which depends on clinical doctors knowledge and approach, is of a key importance. Superior legislative, procedure standards, operable network connecting state authorities, health care providers and transfusion service, further unmistakable data collection definition and application of findings to the practice is necessary for the effective haemovigilance system. Legislative standard for the European Union member states is Directive No. 2002/98/EC, which provides quality and safety standards for production of transfusion preparations,it does not solve the clinical section of problems. In the Czech Republic, the field of transfusion preparations production is quite well handled by the Medicine Act, while European legislative being implemented gradually. The situation in the clinical section is not optimal, especially national guidelines for indications of transfusion preparations and transfusion administration itself are missing, the problem is also the absence of undergraduate and postgraduate education in transfusiology.
Key words:
