Burgas doctors are facing an increasing need for blood products, especially during the summer months, when the number of serious traffic accidents sharply increases. Just this past weekend, over 10 accident victims were admitted to the Burgas University Hospital, requiring over 30 bags of blood and blood products for their treatment.
According to the statistics of the Department of Transfusion Hematology, nearly 1,400 people with injuries received blood transfusions in 2024. Trauma patients are in the top three of those who need blood transfusions, along with the operated and chronically ill. This poses a serious challenge for doctors, especially during the summer season, when traffic is intense and the number of severe cases is high.
"In a single day, we can use as much blood as we would for an entire week in other periods of the year," the Department of Transfusion Hematology noted. The medical staff are calling for blood donation from all healthy people aged 18 to 65, as blood has no substitute and each donor can save the lives of four people.
The Department of Transfusion Hematology works with donors every weekday from 7:30 to 14:00, urging citizens to actively participate in order to prevent the deepening of the blood crisis in the region.
