<![CDATA[World population’s access to safe blood is limited. Only 30% of countries in the world have comprehensive transfusion services in their countries. Meanwhile, massive transfusion therapy has poor survival rate with mortality rate of about 45-67%. The patient’s age, duration and severity of shock, Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC), and the amount of blood transfused affect the fnal outcome. Coagulopathy has a high mortality rate within 4-6 days after hospitalization. Many obstetrics and gynecology patients have the potential to require blood transfusions.
