Blutspendezentrale Saar-Pfalz GmbH

The Blutspendezentrale Saar-Pfalz is a central institution dedicated to collecting blood donations to ensure medical care in the region. It supplies a total of 22 hospitals in Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate with important blood products such as erythrocyte concentrates, fresh plasma and platelet concentrates[3][4].

The main mission of the Blutspendezentrale Saar-Pfalz is to support the population through blood donations and to ensure the supply of the region. It attaches great importance to health care and is committed to protecting donors. Each potential donor is thoroughly examined to ensure that no diseases are transmitted[4].

The blood donation center offers a variety of blood products, including:

• Erythrocyte concentrates
• Fresh plasma
• Platelet concentrates

In addition, regular donors are offered further health tests, such as checking vitamin B12 and vitamin D levels, as well as the troponin level to determine the risk of cardiovascular disease[2][4].

The Blutspendezentrale Saar-Pfalz is committed to a sustainable blood supply by promoting regular blood donations and recruiting new donors. This is particularly important as the number of donors has declined in recent months and a shortage in the blood supply is threatening[5]. In addition, the facility offers free health checks for regular donors, which contributes to long-term donor retention[4].

The Blutspendezentrale Saar-Pfalz is currently facing the challenge of recruiting enough blood donors to ensure medical care. Due to the ongoing wave of colds and a general decline in the number of donors, the population is being asked to show commitment and solidarity, especially among healthy people between the ages of 18 and 60[4][5].
