In a path breaking collaboration, a very first of its kind in India and South Asia region, Marengo Asia Hospitals brings one of the most advanced techniques of transfusion free heart transplant. The collaboration was signed by Dr Raajiv Singhal, Managing Director & Group CEO, Marengo Asia Hospitals and Anurag Mishra, Regional Director- India and South Asia, Werfen.  

Marengo Asia Healthcare group, in a strategic partnership with Barcelona-headquartered Werfen, is poised to adopt the Goal Directed Bleeding Management (GDBM) solutions, reducing complications for the patients. Complex cardiac surgical procedures necessitate the practice of transfusing blood to the patient but very often the transfusion can lead to adverse effects, including severe and long-lasting complications for the patient.

The most sustainable, cost-effective and evidence-based approach for minimalising blood transfusion, and hence improving patients’ outcomes (such as decrease in the length of hospital stay), is to implement the principles and practices of Patient Blood Management (PBM), which is strongly recommended by WHO. The most crucial and clinically proven cornerstone of PBM is Goal-directed bleeding Management (GDBM). 

Marengo Asia Healthcare group of hospitals will also adopt the unique and innovative solution “GEMWeb Live”, a real-time onscreen dashboard of diagnostic assays and graphs for cardiac surgical procedures. Marengo CIMS Hospital, Ahmedabad will become the first Indian corporate hospital to be equipped with such a feature. With the patient’s safety and better outcomes as our core objective and the admixture of clinical competence and optimal usage of diagnostic and management-guiding devices in evaluation of coagulopathic bleeding.
