Abstract

A model of information support of production transfusion processes is offered. Formalization of content of information support of processes is performed for the model with the requirements of the regulatory framework, with the decomposition of production transfusion processes, with the quantitative and qualitative data estimates for the information support of processes. Analysis of global trends of automation of production transfusion processes, properties and functional characteristics of specialized medical information systems for blood services allows formally provide a functional structure of the system which provides information support. A feature of the model is the possibility with different levels of detail to formalize the information support highlighting the data collection control point, and thus, in general (roughly) or deployed (in detail) review evaluated system to meet the requirements. In addition, the model takes into account the varying degrees of importance of the data received for information support, and varying degrees of automation of functional modules of the system. The resulting model allows for the generalized indicator to access the compliance of information support to the requirements of normative standards of quality blood products, which can be used to determine the value of the reference indicator of the generalized information support and the level of compliance with the information support of the test system to a reference system.

Highlights

  • Using of blood components is an integral part of modern healthcare in hospitals

  • The model can be formed based on the content analysis of information support of production transfusion processes, structural and functional analysis of blood services (BS) specialized medical information system (SMIS), with the assistance of expert assessments of the importance of data and its sets obtained by information support based on the quality of processes and blood products, while considering the degree of automation of processes of data acquisition

  • The structure of requirements for each of the process action was built according to the results of analysis of the content of information support of production transfusion processes with regard to compliance with regulatory requirements

Summary

Introduction

Using of blood components is an integral part of modern healthcare in hospitals. Production of blood components in blood services (BS) requires continuous management and improvement of the quality system. Compliance with the quality and safety of blood and its components are the prime activities of BS (production transfusion), that provides maximum guarantee to prevent transmission of infectious diseases through donations, processing and transfusion, and efficient use of blood components. Monitoring and control of information flows of production transfusion processes becomes a tool for improving the efficiency of BS activity through effects on indicators such as the percentage of rejected blood products in total production; the percentage of blood products that are written off by the expiry date; the incidence of transfusion reactions and complications. Information support of production transfusion processes using BS SMIS allows to ensure maximum effect of BS activity by minimizing the cost of development, implementation and operation of the system [5].
