Blood transfusion is still an important procedure in modern medical practice despite efforts to avoid it. This is due to it's association with infections especially HIV. It is therefore necessary to have proper quality control of its production, storage and usage [1]. A way of controlling usage is to do regular clinical audit. To effect this, there has to be an agreed standard for appropriate use of blood. The aim of this paper is to briefly highlight the importance of audit, audit procedures and tools i.e. required records, development of audit criteria and audit parameters. Every hospital/blood transfusion center is expected to develop a system of audit that is appropriate to its needs. The suggestions are mainly based on the experience at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital and the Lagos State Blood Transfusion Service.
尽管人们努力避免输血，但输血在现代医学实践中仍然是一个重要的程序。这是因为它与感染尤其是艾滋病毒有关联。因此，对其生产、储存和使用进行适当的质量控制是必要的[1]。控制使用的一种方法是进行定期临床审计。为实现这一点，必须有一个关于血液合理使用的商定标准。本文的目的是简要强调审计的重要性、审计程序和工具，即所需记录、审计标准的制定和审计参数。每个医院/输血中心都应建立一个适合其需求的审计系统。这些建议主要基于拉各斯大学教学医院和拉各斯州输血服务中心的经验。
