Dr. Niamh Caffrey, an epidemiologist in Innovation and Portfolio Management’s donation policy and studies group, shares her experience attending this year’s Canadian Society for Transfusion Medicine (CSTM) annual meeting.

Two chapters in Canadian Blood Services’ Clinical Guide to Transfusion were recently updated to provide health-care providers with the latest guidance on treating patients with hemostatic disorders and hereditary angioedema. Both chapter updates, available on Canadian Blood Services’ professional education website, were completed by a team of experts led by Dr. Man-Chiu Poon, emeritus professor of medicine, pediatrics and oncology at the University of Calgary, Cumming School of Medicine.
