Overview
The Blood Bank module manages the complete blood banking lifecycle -- donor management, blood collection, component separation, testing, inventory, cross-matching, issue, and transfusion monitoring.
This module is for hospitals with a licensed blood bank or blood storage centre. Nursing homes that receive blood from external blood banks can use the simplified transfusion tracking feature without full blood bank operations.
Key Features
- Donor registration and eligibility screening
- Blood collection with bag labelling and barcode tracking
- Component separation (packed RBCs, FFP, platelets, cryoprecipitate)
- Mandatory testing (HIV, HBV, HCV, syphilis, malaria)
- ABO/Rh typing and antibody screening
- Inventory management with real-time stock by component and blood group
- Cross-match requests from clinical teams
- Issue and return tracking
- Transfusion reaction monitoring
- NACO/SBTC compliance reports
- Donor recall and camp management
Donor-side collection and patient-side issue stay traceable end to end.
Eligibility, consent, and donor history are recorded.
Blood unit is collected, labelled, and linked to donor records.
TTI screening and component preparation are completed.
Components are stored with group, expiry, and storage location.
Patient sample compatibility is confirmed before issue.
Bedside verification and transfusion outcome are documented.
For Nursing Homes
If your facility does not have a licensed blood bank but performs surgeries or manages patients needing transfusions:
- Use the Cross-Match and Transfusion sub-modules only
- Record blood received from external blood banks
- Track transfusion administration and monitor for reactions
- Maintain records for regulatory compliance
