Patient's question:
How much blood does a child need to donate? Why isn't one syringe enough? We don't know what the blood is used for. We can't bear to have the child donate again.Past treatment history and effectiveness: Just born.
Desired help: Ask why so much blood is drawn, why it's not enough.
Doctor's answer:
Now there are many blood tests, such as complete blood count, coagulation, hepatitis B, liver and kidney function tests, etc. If the amount of blood drawn is relatively small, then the machine needs to circulate repeatedly, and it naturally won't produce results. Additionally, there's a concern that the results might be problematic, which can be addressed by rechecking these blood samples. If a small amount is drawn initially and there's an issue upon retesting, it would still be necessary to draw more blood, which would be even more painful. Wishing the child healthy growth.
