At Khurana Hospital and IVF Centre, we offer a state-of-the-art Blood Transfusion Facility to provide critical support for patients in need of blood or blood products. Whether it’s for a major surgery, childbirth, trauma care, or treating certain medical conditions, we prioritize safety, accuracy, and timely delivery of blood transfusions to ensure the best outcomes for our patients.
What is Blood Transfusion?
A blood transfusion is a medical procedure where blood or blood components (such as red blood cells, platelets, or plasma) are given to a patient through an intravenous (IV) line. Blood transfusions are used to replace lost blood due to injury, surgery, or diseases like anemia, and to treat other conditions where the body’s ability to produce blood is compromised.
Key Aspects of Our Blood Transfusion Facility
Safety First
We ensure that every blood transfusion is done with the highest safety standards:
- Thorough Screening: All donated blood is rigorously tested for infections, such as HIV, Hepatitis B and C, and syphilis.
- Matching Blood Types: We carefully match blood and blood products with the patient’s blood type to prevent transfusion reactions.
- Sterile Procedures: We use sterile equipment and ensure a clean environment for every transfusion procedure.
Timely Blood Availability
We understand that blood transfusions can be critical, especially in emergencies. Our hospital maintains a well-stocked blood bank, ensuring that we have an adequate supply of blood and blood products available at all times, including:
- Whole blood
- Red blood cells

Throughout the transfusion process, our medical team carefully monitors the patient for any adverse reactions. This includes tracking vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature to ensure the transfusion is progressing safely.
