Speaker: Dr Lee Shir Ying, Consultant Haematologist, Department of Laboratory Medicine & Haematology-Oncology, NUH

Transfusion of blood and blood products is perhaps the most prevalent intervention utilised in medical practice which also requires complex organisational structure, framework and processes to culminate in a safe and effective end product for the patient. This talk highlights the current state of transfusion medicine, residual risks and adverse effects of transfusions and the changing paradigms that will front transfusion medicine for the future.

Registration & breakfast at 7.10am, talk begins at 7.40am.
