ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Transfusion is one of the most important treatments in patient care. It has been known that there is a lack of transfusion medicine knowledge of doctors in other countries, however it has not been investigated yet in Korea. In this study, we assessed the educational need and the knowledge on transfusion medicine for trainees to provide basic raw data for future education in transfusion medicine. METHODS: Transfusion is one of the most important treatments in patient care. It has been known that there is a lack of transfusion medicine knowledge of doctors in other countries, however it has not been investigated yet in Korea. In this study, we assessed the educational need and the knowledge on transfusion medicine for trainees to provide basic raw data for future education in transfusion medicine. RESULTS: Among trainees, 89.9% said they received more than one hour of transfusion medicine education at medical schools, but 57.3% did not receive transfusion medicine education after finishing medical school. Moreover, 76.4% and 86.5% of respondents stated that additional transfusion medicine education was needed during and after medical school respectively. Among respondents, 43.5%, 53.9%, and 28.1% reported their knowledge on blood products, pretransfusion testing, and transfusion reactions as low or very low. In the assessment of knowledge of transfusion medicine, the mean percentage of correct answers was 65.2%. The rates of correct answers (average) ranged from 25.8% to 80.9% (58.2%), 49.4% to 94.4% (75.7%) 70.8% to 89.9% (80.2%) in case of blood products, pretransfusion testing, and transfusion reactions respectively. CONCLUSION: Transfusion medicine education among trainees after finishing medical school was found to be insufficient, and additional education for transfusion medicine is demanded by trainees.
