Blood Collection
Blood collection is a vital process that involves drawing blood from donors to help save lives. It is performed by trained healthcare professionals using sterile equipment to ensure the safety and comfort of the donor. The collected blood is then used for various medical treatments, including surgeries, trauma care, and for patients with chronic illnesses. Donors are screened for eligibility to ensure their health and the safety of the collected blood. People also require blood collection for many tests & diagnosis.
Keeping Sanitization
Maintaining sanitization during blood collection is paramount to ensuring the safety of both donors and recipients. To achieve this, strict hygiene protocols are rigorously followed. These protocols begin with the use of sterile, single-use needles and equipment to eliminate any risk of cross-contamination. Healthcare professionals conducting the blood collection are required to thoroughly wash their hands with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer before and after each procedure. Additionally, the skin at the site of the blood draw is cleaned with an antiseptic solution to prevent the introduction of bacteria.
Blood Groups
Blood groups are classified based on the presence of certain antigens on the surface of red blood cells. The main blood groups are A, B, AB, and O, each of which can be positive or negative based on the presence of the Rh factor. These blood types are essential in determining compatibility for blood transfusions and organ transplants.
Blood Storage
Once collected, blood is stored in various forms to meet different medical needs. Whole blood can be used directly for transfusions, while specific components like red blood cells, plasma, and platelets are separated and stored. Red blood cells are refrigerated, plasma is frozen, and platelets are kept at room temperature and continuously agitated to prevent clumping. Each type of blood product has specific storage conditions and shelf lives, ensuring they remain safe and effective for patients in need.
