All extra bags are separated off from the donation bag (now the RBC bag). If the blood was collected for transfusion to babies, the RBC is placed in a refrigerator and it waits for all of the viral marker test results to be entered in the computer. If the RBCs are floating in nutrient rich fluid, then the RBC has to have the donor’s WBC filtered out of it with the attached filter. (Blood for transfusion to babies is also filtered, but it is done prior to centrifugation. It’s just how we process this type of blood bag.)

Oswald Hope Robertson, a medical researcher and U.S.Army officer, was attached to the RAMC in 1917, where he became instrumental in establishing the first blood banks in preparation for the anticipated Third Battle of Ypres. [96] He used sodium citrate as the anticoagulant; blood was extracted from punctures in the vein and was stored in bottles at British and American Casualty Clearing Stations along the Front. Robertson also experimented with preserving separated red blood cells in iced bottles. [94] Geoffrey Keynes, a British surgeon, developed a portable machine that could store blood to enable transfusions to be carried out more easily.Plasma donation (plasmapheresis) collects the liquid portion of the blood (plasma). Plasma helps blood clot and contains antibodies that help fight off infections.

However, early transfusions were risky and many resulted in the death of the patient. By the late 19th century, blood transfusion was regarded as a risky and dubious procedure, and was largely shunned by the medical establishment.

Expansion [ edit ] Alexander Bogdanov established a scientific institute to research the effects of blood transfusion in Moscow, 1925. For red blood cells (RBC), by far the most commonly transfused product, poor transfusion efficacy can result from units damaged by the so-called storage lesion – a range of biochemical and biomechanical changes that occur during storage. With red cells, this can decrease viability and ability for tissue oxygenation. [40] Although some of the biochemical changes are reversible after the blood is transfused, [41] the biomechanical changes are less so, [42] and rejuvenation products are not yet able to adequately reverse this phenomenon. [43] There has been controversy about whether a given product unit's age is a factor in transfusion efficacy, specifically about whether "older" blood directly or indirectly increases risks of complications. [44] [45] Studies have not been consistent on answering this question, [46] with some showing that older blood is indeed less effective but with others showing no such difference; these developments are being closely followed by hospital blood bankers – who are the physicians, typically pathologists, who collect and manage inventories of transfusable blood units.

All donations are routinely tested for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, hepatitis E, human immunodeficiency virus, syphilis and for first time donors, human T-lymphotropic virus, before they are released to hospitals. If any blood donation tests positive for infection, it is not released and therefore cannot be issued to a patient. The donor is given support and advice.
