Guide to the preparation, use and quality assurance of blood components

This guide contains a compendium of measures designed to ensure safety, efficacy and quality of blood components and is particularly intended for all those working in blood transfusion services. It describes the different blood components and gives information on their clinical indications and possible side effects. This guide continues to be the „golden standard“ for blood transfusion services and forms the basis for many national guidelines in Europe and outside. For example, in 2000 Australia mandated the guide in its standard for blood components. In this 9th edition, Part A on Good Manufacturing Practice has been completely overhauled. Where necessary, chapters have been revised to take into account what can be achieved with new technology. This reference book will be of interest to blood transfusion centres, legislators, health personnel and all those working in the field of blood transfusion.
