DA ADOÇÃO DO PROGRAMA DE GERENCIAMENTO DE SANGUE DO PACIENTE (PBM) SOB A PERSPECTIVA DOS DIREITOS HUMANOS E DO DIREITO À SAÚDE

Abstract

This article aims to address Patient Blood Management (PBM) focusing on its implementation as a public health policy in Brazil, following the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO). It highlights the relationship between PBM and human rights, health rights and patient autonomy. The analysis examines the PBM adoption as a public health policy in Brazil regarding human rights, with an emphasis on respect for human dignity, patient autonomy, and the health right. In addition, the study also sought to analyze the risks associated with blood transfusions and the need for alternatives, such as PBM, as well as explore the relationship between patient autonomy and the right to refuse medical treatments involving blood transfusions. Additionally, the research evaluates the implementation of PBM as a public policy in Brazil, in accordance with WHO recommendations. This study was developed using a hypothetical-deductive method, based on qualitative and descriptive research, including documentary analysis of Brazilian legislation, judicial decisions, decisions of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), and WHO recommendations related to public health policy and PBM, as well as bibliographic analysis. The study concluded that PBM is an alternative to reduce the need for blood transfusions while respecting patient autonomy, and its implementation is presented as a public policy consistent with the protection and promotion of human rights in the country.
