Blood transfusion must be safe as it may include many risks beside its life-saving function. So it is of critical importance to protect the patients from such risks and ensure due and proper use of the blood and blood products,” said Prof. Güven. “As blood transfusion will continue to be a vital requirement, we have to develop and adapt such projects to the current conditions. As Ministry of Health and healthcare professionals, we have to guarantee quality and security of health services.
