Anyone knows SAGEM type of blood?

(1/1)

Pratik:
I am sometimes given SAGEM type of blood. I don't know if its available elsewhere in other part of the country or world.

Anyone knows more about it? However, these days, I only take TSW. :)

Dharmesh:
What is TSW?
About SAGM
I am given LR RCC by SAGM method. So it is some method for blood testing and competability( I believe).
It better than RCC (RBC)alone.

Pratik:
TSW = Triple Saline Wash.

Dharmesh:
Oh yes,
I was also given the same advice to take TRIPLE SALINE WASHED BLOOD.
It reduce the chances of Short as well as Long Term Reactions due to Continuous Tranx.
