Planet swelling? Climate change of the world can calm down in providing blood
he Climate It can affect a series of View and demand for blood transfusionsAccording to a new study. Researchers at the Red Cross Live Blinod and the University of the Sunshine Coast (UNISC) in Australia believe that it is possible that the blood -blooded diseases, as well as natural disasters, change active patterns.
In addition to reducing the transfer of a large number of people, These events change storage, safety and blood transfusion“Who has a short summer life,” says Dr. Elvina Venet, one of the study researchers.
Every year they are transferred to Europe 25 million units of blood. It is necessary for the treatments of patients who undergo surgery, a premature child, and the victims of accidents, and Chronic patients.
“Climate change can have an effect on some Infectious diseases That can be transmitted through blood and Prevent people from completing“Vinite added, with the intensification of potential diseases that are transmitted by mosquitoes They are more frequentEspecially dengue fever.
The effect of the maximum climate
Other conditions related to climate change, such as ” The maximum timeIncluding high temperatures, exposure to cold and other climate fluctuations, “they can also reduce a group of potential blood donors, according to the study published on Thursday in The health of the planets Lancet.
Climate changes can affect hemoglobin, red blood cells and blood pressure, in addition to causing new diseases and severe health problems such as moisturizing and blood pressure, especially Due to heat. Psychological effects can also arise, such as ClimateWhich would affect the donors, according to Hilin Fadi, a professor of UNISC and the author of the study.
“At the same time, changes in the spread of diseases and repetition of natural disasters can increase the demand for blood transfusion due to cases such as complications of pregnancy, cardiovascular disease and sickle cell anemia.”
In the study, researchers suggest Possible mitigation strategiesLike flexible and mobile blood centers, cell rescue – a form of automatic transport – and international cooperation.
“With an increase in sea level, which increases immigration rates, it is necessary to have you More doners for blood Fadi said: “Of different ethnic origins and increasing the number of people who donate blood.”
