Research is conducted to answer a question. Many times, these
answers result in changes to donor eligibility or identify initiatives to
improve patient care. Central Blood Bank has long recognized the importance of
research projects in ensuring the safety of transfusion therapy, and advancing
health care in the region. Throughout our 56 years, Central Blood Bank has been
an active participant in research projects designed to improve transfusion
medicine and, ultimately, brighten and save lives.
There are many different types of research currently being conducted by Central
Blood Bank. Oftentimes, blood donors have the opportunity to assist Central
Blood Bank in various research projects that may improve transfusion therapy.
