Popis: The Haemovigilance Unit of Brest University Hospital has had a reporting system of transfusion reactions since october 1994. Reporting "any unexpected or undesirable effect due or likely to be due to the administering of blood cell components" must be done on an answering machine immediately or in the next eight hours. The main goal of the evaluation of this epidemiological surveillance system was to assess its sensitivity, its positive predictive value, its acceptability, its timeliness and its simplicity, according to the Centers for Disease Control criteria. An exhaustive monitoring of the immediate transfusion reactions (ITR) occurring within the 24 hours following the procedure was conducted from April 1, to June 30, 1998. Two sources of information were used, the spontaneous notification to the Haemovigilance Unit using the answering machine, and a telephone survey of the nurse responsible for the transfusion or post-transfusion follow-up. During the survey, 19 ITR, among which 12 were reported to the Haemovigilance Unit on the answering machine, were recorded. The incidence rate of the I.T.R. was estimated at 5@1000 transfused blood cell components. The sensitivity of the notification system was estimated at 63% (95% confidence interval: 41-85) and the positive predictive value at 70% (95% confidence interval: 48-92). This notification system is operational. The function of sanitary alert is ensured at the primary level of the system surveillance. The undernotification of the ITR (37% of false negative) must be corrected by specific recommendations.
