TRAINING: APPROPRIATE USAGE OF HES
  • Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) solutions for infusion belong to the class of artificial colloids.
  • In the European Union (EU) / European Economic Area (EEA), HES solutions are indicated for the treatment of hypovolaemia due to acute blood loss when crystalloids alone are not considered sufficient.
  • The use of HES solutions outside the marketing authorization (MA) has been monitored in two independent drug utilization studies (DUSs) from two Marketing Authorisation Holders (MAHs) in EU countries.
  • To prevent any use of HES solutions outside the terms of the marketing authorisation (MA) in the European Union (EU) / European Economic Area (EEA), this training has been implemented by the MAHs.

This online-training applies for Healthcare Professionals in the EU/EEA only. The e-learning focuses on the usage of HES products according to the European product information and can therefore only be accessed by HCPs from EU/EEA.

Relevant healthcare professionals (HCPs) are required to complete this training prior to the use of HES solutions at their institution.
