Type: article
Abstract: Objective To conduct hazard vulnerability analysis(HVA) in a blood bank, aimed to identify high-risk events and optimize emergency management measures. Methods The risk event evaluation index system was established by referring to the Kaiser model and the situation of Guangzhou Blood Center, and risk events were ranked by risk matrix and Borda count. Results The top five events with the highest risk values identified by Kaiser model were information system emergencies (39.61%), extreme weather (38.03%), major public sentiment (37.86%), public health events (37.37%) and policy changes (37.24%). The results of risk matrix and Borda count revealed 1 extremely high-risk indicator as information system emergency, 5 high-risk indicators with the highest risk being major public sentiment, 11 medium-risk indicators with the highest risk being major medical disputes and 1 low-risk indicator as external fires. Conclusion Conducting HVA in combination with the actual situation of blood banks can effectively identify high-risk events and provide theoretical basis for improving emergency management measures.
