Transfusion medicine is a medical specialty that focuses on the study and application of procedures related to the transfusion of blood and its components, with the aim of treating and preventing diseases.
Transfusion medicine offers services such as blood donation, blood and blood component transfusion, apheresis therapy, immunohematology, and pediatric transfusion medicine, among others.
Anyone over the age of 18 who is in good health, weighs more than 50 kg, and meets the blood bank’s requirements may be eligible to donate blood.
The blood donation process usually takes between 30 and 45 minutes, including registration, a medical interview, the blood draw, and the recovery period afterward.
Transfusion medicine saves lives by providing blood and blood components to patients who need them due to surgery, accidents, chronic illnesses, or blood disorders. It also helps improve patients’ quality of life by treating and preventing blood-related diseases.
