[Hospital haemovigilance and adverse events or reactions: who notifies and what?]. / Gestion des évènements indésirables receveurs: le point de vue de l'hémovigilant d'un établissement de santé.

The French haemovigilance system designates a physician in charge of haemovigilance in each hospital. She/he collects the adverse reactions and events reported by medical staff or nurses. In 2010, 7360 (2.42/1000 units) adverse reactions and 518 adverse events (excepted donors) were reported. These results mean that the system is particularly effective in hospitals. This study collected the opinion of physicians in charge of haemovigilance about this organization.
