Documentation of anemia management interventions. Case study of the anemic patient.
Documentation is an integral part of good anemia management. In addition to relaying vital clinical information, documentation demonstrates how nurses and other medical professionals are striving to achieve the standards of care mandated by law, their profession, third party payers, and individual health care providers. Proper documentation of anemia management practices should include a written chronological history of the rationales, plans, interventions, and evaluations initiated to achieve patient-specific Hb/Hct target levels across the spectrum of care.
