Transfusion Medicine

Transfusion medicine involves the proper use of blood and blood products in the treatment and prevention of various diseases. The transfusion of different blood components helps in providing relief from symptomatic anemia and simultaneously decreasing the risk associated with low blood platelet count. This is especially beneficial for patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

At Chirayu Hospital, we have an experienced team of doctors and technicians who safely collect the blood, and the blood products are checked for infectious disease testing, compatibility testing as well as various modifications such as leukocyte reduction. Although all safety precautions are taken, there are minute risks associated including hypersensitivity, post transmission infection, etc.
