CPOE Reducing Inappropriate Transfusions (CRIT) Collaborative “The most cost effective opportunity to improve patient outcomes in the next quarter century will likely come, not from discovering new therapies but from discovering how to effectively deliver therapies that are known to be effective” Sean Berenholtz 2003

Collaborative Goals Provide a venue for for multiple institutions to share experiences and projects surrounding blood utilization. Test the hypothesis that CPOE tethered to CDS can improve and hasten the adoption of evidence based guidelines across multiple institutions. Set the framework for future collaborations using effective decision support tools.

Meeting Agenda Introductions Presentation from Dr Nabil Hassan from SABM Report from BLOOD NET meeting Discuss institutional progress on the CRIT project, and gathering baseline data.
