ISO Standards for Blood Banks

ISO standards for blood banks are guidelines set by the International Organization for Standardization to ensure the safety, quality, and efficiency of blood donation and testing processes. These standards cover various aspects, including how blood is collected, tested, processed, stored, and distributed. The goal is to protect both donors and recipients by minimizing risks of contamination or errors. By adhering to these standards, blood banks ensure that they provide safe and reliable blood products to patients in need, ultimately supporting better health outcomes in the community.
