The AABB Standards for a Patient Blood Management Program, Fourth Edition, will take effect July 1, 2023. The PBM Standards Committee hopes to engage members in developing the fourth edition and asks interested parties to submit comments to help shape these updates. Please submit comments by Friday, Jan. 7, 2022. The Committee will review all responses when it meets to prepare the fourth edition in February 2022.
AABB will continue to hold the 60-day open comment period following the release of the proposed PBM Standards, scheduled to begin in February 2022. Submitting comments prior to the Jan. 7 deadline will help guide the PBM Standards Committee as it works on the next edition.
