Established in 2010, the St. Theresa’s Hospital Blood Centre plays a vital role in ensuring the availability of safe blood and blood components for diverse medical requirements. The center operates with a multi-dimensional approach, offering services such as blood donation, blood collection centers, mobile blood donation units, and 24/7 blood availability.
It is especially committed to supporting thalassemia patients, emergency cases, and hospitals across Hyderabad.
Equipped with advanced blood bank technology, the facility ensures the highest standards of safety and accuracy. The implementation of Gel technology for blood cross-matching enhances compatibility testing, while the ARCHITECT i1000 SR (Abbott) system enables efficient viral screening, including HIV, HCV, and HBsAg detection, reducing infection risks and ensuring safe blood transfusion.
Additionally, the blood bank features a Level-5 leukoreduction apheresis machine (Trima Accel), designed to deliver high-quality blood components by minimizing leukocyte contamination. The availability of backup equipment ensures uninterrupted services, maintaining consistent quality output. Specialized tools like the sterile device connector (Terumo Penpol) further enhance safety, particularly in pediatric transfusions.
Driven by a mission to provide reliable blood bank services in Hyderabad, St. Theresa’s continues to combine cutting-edge technology, expert medical supervision, and a commitment to saving lives through safe and efficient blood management.
