These findings have informed an ongoing quality improvement initiative to improve the appropriateness and timing of thrombophilia testing.
Thank you to the Thrombosis Program team for their great effort.

Why does this matter?
Among patients exposed to unreliable testing, we observed downstream consequences :
• Repeat testing
• Thrombophilia labeling
• Pregnancy-related treatment
• Lifelong anticoagulation
Diagnostic errors can extend far beyond the laboratory result
•22.4% of thrombophilia tests were performed under biologically unreliable conditions.
• Common unreliable testing settings included recent thrombosis, pregnancy, heparin exposure, and warfarin therapy.
Presented at #EHA2026:
A Diagnostic Safety Gap in Thrombophilia Testing: Unreliable Timing and Downstream Harm.
We reviewed 505 thrombophilia tests

IVC filter quality-improvement project led to :
appropriate insertions increased from 73% to 87%, and retrieval rates from 76% to 95% (both statistically significant).
Using policy restriction, automatic hematology consultation, weekly rounds, and targeted education.

سوال جدا مهم وضروري
تعارض مسيلات الدم مع الادويه
هناك ادويه تزيد عرضه النزيف وهناك ادويه تقلل من فعاليه المسيل
من الضروري سوال الطبيب عن اي دوا جديد اذا كان يتعارض مع المسيل ام لا
