Kollam’s first apheresis service was inaugurated at the Department of Transfusion Medicine by District Collector Smt. Ani Jula Thomas IAS. Apheresis is an advanced medical procedure that separates specific components of blood, such as plasma, platelets or white blood cells, and collects the required component while returning the remaining blood components to the donor or patient. This milestone expands access to specialised transfusion medicine services in the district.
