Donating the “correct” kind of blood, depending on your blood type and the patient’s requirements, ensures that your virtual gift is put to the most excellent use possible. To maximize your influence, you should take the following factors into account.
Whole Blood Donation
The most versatile kind of blood donation is whole blood. Red blood cells, plasma, and platelets may be transfused in whole or in parts, and they can be split into components and utilized to treat many patients. Discover the benefits of donating whole blood.
Power Red Donation
Donating blood for the Power Red program concentrates your red blood cells for use in transfusions. Donating in this manner entails having your red blood cells extracted from the rest of your blood before having your plasma and platelets returned to you in a safe and comfortable manner.
More red cells may be donated to needy people if you take a little more time during your visit. Find out more about how to donate to Power Red by visiting their website.
Platelet Donation
Platelets are blood cells that help clot bleeding and stop it from spreading. Patients with cancer and other life-threatening diseases or traumas are the most likely to benefit from the use of platelets.
An apheresis machine gathers your platelets and some plasma during a platelet donation, returning your red blood cells and most of your plasma to you. A single donation of whole blood may create one transfusable unit of platelets, but a single gift of platelets may provide many transfusable units.
Cancer treatments, organ transplants, and other surgical operations depend on platelets.
Blood types to look for
Plasma Donation
When you donate plasma via the AB Elite program, it is utilized to assist patients in urgent need of treatment. You can receive AB plasma no matter what kind of blood you have. In an automated procedure, your blood plasma is separated from your red blood cells and platelets before being reintroduced into your body. It takes less time and effort to give blood with AB Elite.
Emergency & trauma situations require the use of AB Plasma to stop bleeding.
