Project number: 2004-24
Beneficiary: Ospedale San Giacomo

The target of the Transfusion Centre is to promote the  blood donation, this will support any region to have a self-sufficiency  of  "secure" blood.

For this reason the setting of a  donation - room  equipped with all the comforts and up-to- date machinery, will be able to contribute the propaganda and sensitization of the people, for the blood donation.  

The project funded by the Nando Peretti Foundation involved buying two armchairs for taking blood samples, a portable soldering machine for blood bags, a distributor with a compressor for the preparation and to fractionate blood, two platform scales supplied by  the FRESENIUS firm and of a solder for sterile connections supplied by the TERUMO firm.

 The purchase of this technological equipment guarantees the maximum output  and  asepsis in blood donation.
