BLOOD DONATION
- A patient needs blood after a major accident in which there is loss of blood.
- No major surgery is performed without blood as there is bound to be blood loss.
- On an average, for every open heart surgery about 6 units of blood is required.
- In miscarriage or childbirth, cases the patient may need large amount of blood to be transfused for saving her life and also the child's.
- For patients with blood diseases like severe Anaemias especially Aplastic Anaemias, Leucaemias (blood cancer), Haemophilia (bleeding disorder), Thalassemia etc. repeated blood transfusions are the only solution.
- In many other situations like poisoning, drug reactions, shock, burns, blood transfusion is the only way to save precious human life.
(1) PROFESSIONAL DONORS - They sell their blood, which is of very poor quality and can
transmit very dangerous diseases to the recipient. It is illegal to take blood from any professional donor.
(2) REPLACEMENT DONATION - Healthy relatives and friends of the patient give their blood, of any group, to the blood bank. In exchange, the required number of units in the required blood group is given.
(3) VOLUNTARY DONATION- Here a donor donates blood voluntarily. The blood can be used for any patient even without divulging the identity of the donor. This is the best type of blood donation where a motivated human being gives blood in an act of selfless service.
Any person within the age group of 18 - 60 years with a body weight as minimum 45 kgs, and having hemoglobin content as minimum 12.5 gm%.
