Thiruvananthapuram: In a major healthcare initiative, Kerala has launched a Rare Blood Donor Registry to ensure timely availability of rare blood groups for patients in critical need. The registry aims to create a database of donors with rare blood types, making it easier for hospitals and blood banks to locate and mobilize donors during emergencies.
Health officials emphasize that the initiative will be a lifesaver for patients with uncommon blood groups, who often struggle to find compatible donors. The registry will be managed with the help of medical institutions, voluntary donor organizations, and digital platforms to streamline the process.
With Kerala leading the way in healthcare innovations, the Rare Blood Donor Registry is expected to set an example for other states, enhancing the efficiency of blood donation and saving countless lives.
