One Bag, Three Lives: The Magic of Fractionation
The slogan "Save 3 Lives" isn't a marketing gimmick. It is medical reality. Modern blood banking rarely transfuses "Whole Blood". Instead, we use Component Therapy.
1. Red Blood Cells (RBCs)
Used for trauma victims, surgery patients, and Thalassemia patients. They provide oxygen.
2. Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP)
Used for burn victims to replace fluids and for liver failure patients to provide clotting factors.
3. Platelets
Used for Dengue patients (whose count drops) and Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. They prevent internal bleeding.
By splitting your one donation, we can treat three different people with specific needs. Efficiency saves lives!
