[Objective] To explore the effectiveness of applying the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle to enhance the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients across multiple hospital campuses. [Methods] Clinical blood transfusion data from May to July 2022 were selected. Specific improvement measures were formulated based on the survey results, and the PDCA cycle management model was implemented from August 2022. The post-intervention phase spanned from August 2022 to October 2023. The Rh phenotype compatibility rate, the detection rate of Rh system antibodies, and the proportion of Rh system antibodies among unexpected antibodies were compared between the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022) and the post-intervention phase. [Results] After the continuous improvement with the PDCA cycle, the compatibility rate for the five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients from August to October 2023 reached 81.90%, significantly higher than the 70.54% recorded during the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022, P<0.01), and displayed a quarterly upward trend (β=0.028, P<0.05). The detection rate of Rh blood group system antibodies (β=-9.839×10-5, P<0.05) and its proportion among all detected antibodies (β=-0.022, P<0.05) showed a quarterly decreasing trend, both demonstrating a negative correlation with the enhanced compatibility rate (r values of -0.981 and -0.911, respectively; P<0.05). [Conclusion] The implementation of targeted measures through the PDCA cycle can effectively increase the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients, reduce the occurrence of unexpected Rh blood group antibodies, thereby lowering the risk of transfusion and enhancing the quality and safety of medical care.

【Objective】 To establish a blood transfusion outcome prediction model for comprehensivel evaluation of coagulation function of patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding by thrombelastogram (TEG) and blood coagulation indicators. 【Methods】 The data of 101 patients with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology of Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital and its Chun′an Branch from June 2018 to June 2021, were collected through Tongshuo blood transfusion management system and His system. Those patients were divided into blood transfusion group (n=56) and non-transfusion group (n=45), and into cirrhosis group (n=74) and non-cirrhosis group (n=27), and 40 patients, with non-upper gastrointestinal bleeding, were enrolled as the control. The results of TEG indicators (R, K, α, MA), coagulation function (PT, INR, APTT, TT, Fib), blood routine (Hb, Plt, WBC, NEUT%) and biochemical detection(Alb, SCr, ALT, AST, GGT) before transfusion were compared between groups and the correlation between TEG indicators and traditional coagulation parameters was analyzed. Single-factor and multi-factor analysis were used to screen blood transfusion-related factors to establish a predictive model. 【Results】 The comparisons of paremeters between transfusion and non-transfusion group were as follows, K (min), α (°), and MA (mm) was 3.86±3.12 vs 2.50±1.47, 54.00±14.08 vs 61.05±10.88, and 51.12±13.37 vs 58.26±11.08, respectively (P<0.01); PT (s) and Fib (g) was 16.36±7.45 vs 13.44±1.50 and 1.59±0.87 vs 2.35±1.09 (P<0.01); NEUT% and Hb (g/L) was 0.75 ±0.13 vs 0.66±0.15 and 68.04±14.49 vs 100.73±22.92 (P<0.01); Alb (g/L) and SCr (nmol/L) was 29.73±6.08 vs 33.73±7.19 and 99.50±53.55 vs 76.25±19.28 (P<0.01). Correlation analysis showed that APTT was positively correlated with R and K values, and negatively correlated with α and MA. Fib was negatively correlated with K values, and positively correlated with α and MA. Plt was negatively correlated with K values, and positively correlated with α and MA (P<0.01). Eight pre-transfusion indicators as K, MA, PT, Fib, NEUT%, Hb, Alb, and SCr were subjected to Logistic regression to establish a blood transfusion prediction model. The optimal ROC curve of blood transfusion threshold (blood transfusion predictive value of patients), sensitivity, specificity and AUC were 0.448, 92.9%, 88.9%, and 0.969, respectively. 【Conclusion】 The establishment of Logistic regression model by integrating detection indicators of TEG, coagulation function, blood routine and biochemistry in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding have showed significant correlation with blood transfusion prediction, and good clinical practicability.
