Resumo: Objective: To verify the adequacy of red blood cell (RBC) prescription to pediatric patients in different sectors of a pediatric hospital. Method: A retrospective study was conducted including 837/990 RBC transfusion requisition forms for children and adolescents (0 to 13 years old) filed in between January 2007 and April 2015 by the pediatricians of the emergency room (ER), infirmary ward and intensive care unit (pICU). Transfusion requisition forms belonging to patients with chronic anemia or acute hemorrhage, as well as incompletes requisition forms, were excluded. Results: Trigger, prescribed volume and subtype of RBC concentrates were adequate in 532 (65.3%), 460 (58.8%) and 805 (96.2%) of the transfusions, respectively. When the clinical picture was considered, prescription adequacy was higher compared to the use of the hemoglobin level alone (70.9% vs. 41%). The pICU had the highest correct trigger percentage (343 [71.6%]

Results: Trigger, prescribed volume and subtype of RBC concentrates were adequate in 532 (65.3%), 460 (58.8%) and 805 (96.2%) of the transfusions, respectively. When the clinical picture was considered, prescription adequacy was higher compared to the use of the hemoglobin level alone (70.9% vs. 41%). The pICU had the highest correct trigger percentage (343 [71.6%]p< 0.001) while the ER showed more often adequate prescribed volumes (119 [66.1%]p= 0.020). The most common inadequacy regarding volume was that of prescriptions above the recommendation > 15 mL/kg found in 309 cases (36.9%). Thirty-two (32) RBC subtypes were requested and none were consistent with current recommendations. Conclusion: The results obtained in our study showed that RBC transfusion occurred more appropriately when the clinical picture was taken into account at request. There was a tendency to prescribe higher volumes and RBC subtypes without the justification of current protocols. Hemotherapic teachings at undergraduate level and medical residency must be improved.Fac Med ABC FMABC, Santo Andre, SP, BrazilHosp Sao Bernardo, Sao Bernardo Do Campo, SP, BrazilFMABC, Dept Pediat, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo EPM Unifesp, Escola Paulista Med, Dept Pediat, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilFMABC, Dept Pediat, Santo Andre, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo EPM Unifesp, Escola Paulista Med, Dept Pediat, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilWeb of ScienceAssoc Medica Brasileira2020-07-08T13:09:43Z2020-07-08T13:09:43Z2018info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion181-186application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1806-9282.64.02.181Revista Da Associacao Medica Brasileira.
