Thematik

The course is a graduate version of the former postgradual course about blood transfusion. During the course the theoretical and practical basics necessary to deliver a transfusion therapy in a safe manner and to diagnose the complications of transfusion will be provided. The covered topics will include the clinically significant blood groups, the various types of blood products available, rules regarding their storage and transportation. During practices students will be trained in blood grouping, interpretation of laboratory blood typing and antibody screening test results, and macroscopic examination of the blood products. Having completed their successful exam in Hungary, resident doctors have to become familiar with the rules of blood transfusion in the actual state and local hospital, where they work, prior to performing transfusions.
