I doubt they will stop using it, but once again we should see an incremental decrease in transfusion rates.

Years ago I learned that the early adoptors changed their practices as soon as they saw a better way. A few colleagues follow them. The pack waits until the science is in, but even in that group adoption times vary. Some want a little proof, some want alot of proof, some need to be forced into change by policy. It's the same with any subset of humans.

All the best.
