A direct donation occurs when a patient's ABO and Rh compatible family members and/or friends donate blood for his or her upcoming procedure. Otherwise a patient has to be given blood which has been processed atleast for a week before transfusing on a patient.

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a ABSOLUTE NEUTROPHIL COUNT (ANC) Test or Take a DNA-NON-SYNDROMIC HEARING LOSS(NSHL) CONEXION 26 Test
