Abstract

Blood is an integral part of our body. It is composed of three living cells red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC) and platelets. RBCs contain haemoglobin and carry oxygen from lungs to the rest of our body. WBCs defend against infection while platelets help in clotting of blood when injury occurs. Blood transports gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide), nutrients, waste, cells and hormones throughout the body. It helps in regulation of pH, temperature, and water content of cells. Blood products are usually required to improve oxygen delivery and to correct coagulopathy.
