Currently, more than 350 units of rare blood are stored in frozen form in the Iranian Blood Transfusion Organization freezing department at -65 to -85 degrees, of which about 100 units are very rare blood groups. About 20 to 30 bags of rare blood are used nationwide annually. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #rareblood #bloodbank #blooddonation #frozenblood #bloodunits

Scarcity shouldn't be the main driving force to cautious utilization! In the era of limited blood components and products, and PDMPs unevenly distributed across the world, scarcity seem to have been put at the forefront to drive good clinical practice of the components. To me, this translates in the fact that, once we have more than what we define as scarcity, this practice can easily be shifted the other way round. Thus, I believe ethics should drive us to more appropriate use of these components. As such, when, and not if, we constantly make these available, we are fulfilled to be giving dignity to all the stakeholders who contribute in making it available. What's your perspective on this?

Russia keeps minimum stock of blood components — federal agency "Every day plenty of patients require transfusion aid," the official added MOSCOW, April 29/ The minimum stock of blood components is kept in all Russian blood service institutions, department head of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency Olga Eikhler told TASS. "The minimum stock of blood components is maintained in all blood service institutions. Reserves will promptly cover the need to treat a rather large number of affected individuals in case of emergencies. It is the stock - blood components prepared in advance from regular donors and after laboratory diagnostics - that is transfused in the first instance," she said. For the time being, 19,000 liters of red blood cells containing components are stored permanently and are ready for release at any time, Eikhler said. There are also kept 7,500 liters of red blood cell components frozen in a cryo-storage, largely the ones belonging to rare groups and phenotypes, and 450,000 liters of plasma. "Every day plenty of patients require transfusion aid," the official added. #business #finance #financialservices

You can never know enough when it comes to blood transfusions. Although transfusions can be lifesaving, they are not without risks or complications. The Blood Transfusion Service of Namibia has compiled a Newsletter explaining: ✅Blood management ✅Restrictive Transfusion ✅Adverse reactions post transfusion with a specific look at #TRALI and #TACO Additionally they remind us that appropriate hematological management is that which provides the ‘Best Outcome For Every Patient, Every Time.’ #nambts #namibia #blooddonation #bloodtransfusion #nmsnamibia

The test to determine your blood group is called ABO typing Blood typing is a method to tell what type of blood you have. Blood typing is done so you can safely donate your blood or receive a blood transfusion. It is also done to see if you have a substance called Rh factor on the surface of your red blood cells. Your blood type is based on whether or not certain proteins are on your red blood cells. These proteins are called antigens. Your blood type (or blood group) depends on what types your parents passed down to you. Blood is often grouped according to the ABO blood typing system. The 4 major blood types are: Type A Type B Type AB Type O For more information Contact us today for your Blood group Test. 0708139113 | info@dounebainedx.com #rh #antigen

Around 10 thousand babies are born every year with thalassemia in India [2]. The condition requires lifelong management and frequent blood transfusions, as frequent as every 15 days, to alleviate symptoms and prevent complications. Given the high prevalence of thalassemia in India, the lack of awareness about the condition and the importance of blood safety is concerning. You can help by raising awareness about the condition, by donating blood, educating people about blood safety measures such as NAT and by encouraging others to also donate blood safely. And to know more about the importance of blood safety, read: https://lnkd.in/d8j9wKaB #Roche | #ValueOfDiagnostics | #NAT | #BloodSafety | #Thalassemia
