April 2024: We reviewed the quality standard and amended the wording for local data sources to align with the most recent quality standard template and to reflect national sources of data where relevant. We amended the process measures in statement 1 to improve clarity and added examples of elective surgeries expected to have moderate blood loss to the definition in statement 2. We also removed structure measures.
May 2018: A correction has been made to the definitions section of statement 1 on the use of intravenous iron supplementation.
