BLOOD ON DEMAND project started by Helping Hands FOR ALL on 01/Sep/2019, is providing healthy blood through volunteer blood donors, free of cost without referring any cast and creed all over India in real emergencies..
No, Each unit of whole blood is separated into several components. Red blood cells may be stored under refrigeration for a maximum of 42 days. Platelets are stored at room temperature and may be kept for a maximum of five to seven days.
It turns out that within hours of leaving the body, levels of nitric oxide in the blood begin to drop, until, by the time donated blood expires after 42 days, the gas is almost nonexistent. "The reality is that we are giving blood that cannot deliver oxygen properly," says Stamler, lead author of the study.
The blood volume is typically replaced within 24 hours. Red blood cells take between 4-6 weeks to completely replace, which is why the FDA requires an 8 week wait between blood donations.
AB negative is the rarest of the eight main blood types - just 1% of our donors have it. Despite being rare, demand for AB negative blood is low and we don't struggle to find donors with AB negative blood.
Recent studies show that there is a need for blood transfusions every 2 seconds. Whole blood is the simplest, most common type of blood donation. An appointment to donate whole blood can take as little as one hour, and the actual donation is only 8-10 minutes of that time.
Universal donors are those with an O negative blood type.
As part of every blood donation, you will receive a free health screening with information that may provide important insights into your health status. You can see the results of your health screening such as your pulse, blood pressure and haemoglobin level, as well as view trends in these important vitals over time, through our free Blood on Demand project by helping hands for all foundation.
Each helping hands for all blood donors follows high standards of safety and infection control. We are taking precautions to help ensure the safety of our employees, volunteers and donors.
We provide a call back number donors should call if they become sick with any illness in the days after their donation.
According to 2021 statistics, India's annual blood requirement is around 1.5 crore units. In every two seconds, a patient in India needs blood and one out of every three people will need blood in their lifetime. A person has five to six litres of blood in his or her body and can donate blood every 90 days.
The human body can recover blood very quickly — blood plasma volume within 24-48 hours, red blood cells in about three weeks and platelets and white blood cells within minutes.
"Blood donation is a noble cause and given our rich culture and tradition of 'seva' or ' sahyog', on Blood Donation, let us all pledge to be always there for someone else and donate blood regularly," You cannot buy happiness, but you can donate blood for a smile. Any time and any where.
