There is tremendous demand for blood in hospitals. Many patients suffer because they are not able to cope with the loss of blood. Blood donation is of prime importance, as it can help save the life of a patient.
At the time of donation, only 350 ml of blood is taken. An average person has 5-6 litres of blood in the body. In terms of volume the loss is corrected in 24-48 hours by the body. The red cell count is corrected in about 56 days.
