Autologous Transfusion of Blood: A Reliable Method<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is one of the most reliable processes of blood transfusion, as the candidate himself\/herself donates his\/her own blood in a pre-donated prescribed manner. It means that the surgeon can discuss with the patient and eventually the patient can donate the blood at Sacramento Blood Source or other special arrangements can be made to collect and preserve the blood previously. In fact, this blood can also be put in the refrigeration mode for more than one month.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Homologous Transfusion or Transfusion from a Separate Donor<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In this type of blood transfusion, there is an external donor other than the patient, who can donate blood during joint replacement<\/strong><\/a>. This donor can be a family member, or else, a completely unknown person also. If the blood groups matches, and if the donor unit of blood has already been taken from the donor, then the joint replacement can be done easily. However, it is generally mandatory to send the sample of donated blood to the blood bank, to test the presence of transmissible diseases.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hormonal Medication:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is an extreme case where a hormone known as Erythropoietin is to be injected within the body of the patient. This hormone is generally produced in the kidneys, but sometimes, they can also be synthesized as commercially produced hormones in the medicine laboratories. This procedure proves to be very helpful especially for all those patients who suffer from a low concentration of Red Blood Cells.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

However, this is a bit costly method, but all these methods are helpful for blood transfusion during joint replacement.<\/p>\r\n
