BLOOD TRANSFUSION SERVICE

The hospital has the headquarters of the State Blood Transfusion Centre (BTC) situated within its complex. The centre strives to provide blood that is safe for transfusion. However, the non-existence of voluntary donors usually hampers this service. The BTC depends to a large extent on relative donors and has in us the ELISA testing technique to screen for TTI"s (Transfusion Transmissible Infections). One of the many equipments needed by this service is a cold centrifuge for the separation of blood into components. Most patients in needed of blood products are most times transfused with other blood components that they don't need as well due to lack of facility to prepare the specifically needed components.

Please feel free to give suggestions, contributions to us as to ways that can be used in ensuring the availability of safe blood for our patients.
