BLOOD TRANSFUSION IN THE 21ST CENTURY: THE BLOOD CENTRE

Due to the unfortunate outcome of the otherwise illustrious and well documented clinical experiments of the French physicians Jean Denis and Paul Emmerez, the 17th and 18th century did not allow the progress in transfusion technology and science to take place at the same pace as so many other fields in medicine and technology in those days. The fact that both Pope and Dean of the Sorbonne had condemned and exiled the transfusion of blood was sufficient to block the developments. The century of industrial revolution, the 19th century, started with a revival of the interest in transfusing blood by the elegant work of the Scottish obstetrician James Blundell. Unfortunately the real breakthrough took another 80 years until1 the landmark discovery and publication at the turn of the century of the Viennese physician Dr. Karl Landsteiner; different groups of blood types. This provided the long abided gateway to the practice and science of today’s transfusion medicine. He was much later in 1930 awarded the Nobel price for his important work.
