That is the thinking behind the 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸, a new initiative launched this year through our Blood Bank Talks platform. At the inaugural session last month, nine leaders from institutions across Canada came together to begin building a working group focused on practical impact. Over the course of 2026, the network will co-develop workflows in priority areas, test them within their own institutions, and share what proves effective in practice. The goal is simple: make valuable knowledge easier to share across institutions. Session 2 takes place at the beginning of April.

Until now, we knew PCC reduces transfusions requirements and corrects coagulopathy. 💡 New RCT meta-analysis evidence shows PCC also improves hemoglobin levels. ✅ +1.17 g/dL higher post-op hemoglobin with PCC vs FFP ✅ ~200 mL less chest-tube drainage at 24h ✅ Higher hemostatic response: 77.9% vs 60.4% PCC is not just a hemostatic tool, it’s a comprehensive PBM enabler for cardiac surgery. How does your center integrate PCC into PBM pathways? #PBM #CardiacSurgery #FARESII #EvidenceToPractice
