Blood transfusions are vital but carry risks and resource limitations. Research into blood substitutes has gained momentum to address these challenges.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Hematology
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Allogeneic blood transfusions are essential in modern medicine.
  • Despite screening, risks include disease transmission and immune reactions.
  • Storage, transport, and donor dependence pose logistical and scarcity challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the development of blood substitutes.
  • To address the limitations of allogeneic blood transfusion.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical efforts in blood substitute development.
  • Analysis of challenges in blood transfusion logistics and safety.

Main Results:

  • Allogeneic blood carries inherent risks and resource limitations.
