2025-05-13Factors associated with inappropriate blood transfusion among obstetric patients at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Eldoret Kenya C. Biwot P.K. Tonui B.J. Locho J. Odunga Abstract Objectives: To determine the blood transfusion rate, identify the indications for blood transfusion and assess the appropriateness of blood transfusion among obstetric patients at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, (MTRH) Eldoret. Methods: This was a hospital based cross-sectional study. Pregnant women from 28 weeks of gestation to 6 weeks postpartum, who received transfusion of blood and blood products, were included in the study. A total of 228 participants were enrolled in the study. Results: The blood transfusion rate among obstetric patients at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital was 3.82%. Obstetric hemorrhage accounted for 72% of all indications for transfusion of blood and blood products, while anemia in pregnancy explained 28% of indications. The commonest indication for transfusion of blood and blood products was uterine atony at 34.2%, followed by genital tract trauma at 14.5% and anemia in pregnancy at 14.0%. Postpartum anemia and retained placenta accounted for 13.2% and 11.4% respectively. HELLP syndrome (6.1%), placental abruption (4.8%), secondary post-partum haemorrhage (3.1%), placenta Previa (2.2%) and uterine rupture (1.8%) accounted for the remainder of the cases. Overall, 37.3% of blood transfusions were inappropriate, with pre- transfusion hemoglobin level and referral status being significantly associated. Conclusions: The blood transfusion rate among obstetric patients at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital was 3.82%. Uterine atony was the most common obstetric indication for blood transfusion at 34.2%. Only 37.3% of blood transfusions were inappropriate as per the Kenya National Blood Transfusion Services (KNBTS) blood transfusion guidelines. Patients who had been referred from other facilities and those with a pretransfusion hemoglobin level above 7g/ dL were more likely to receive an inappropriate blood transfusion.Biwot, C; Tonui, P.K; Locho, B.J.; Odunga, J.
