Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Pathology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Human blood is an essential component of human life which is universally recognized as the most precious element that sustains life. Availability of safe blood and blood components is the critical aspect in improving the health care. Blood transfusion saves millions of lives each year, but adequate and safe blood supply is a great challenge in developing countries. The shortage of safe blood impacts Thallassemia patients, victims of road traffic accidents, women with complicated pregnancy, and cancer patients. Many people in developing countries are facing problem with ignorance and fears about the blood donation process, which results in a limited number of blood donors.
