Apheresis (a Greek word meaning “to remove”) is a medical technology in which the blood donor or the patient is passed through an apparatus that separates one particular constituent and returns the remainder to the blood circulation. It is thus an extracorporeal therapy.
Though most blood is donated as whole blood, it is also possible to donate only a portion of blood using a technique called “Aphaeresis”. During the apheresis donation, we draw blood from the donor’s vein through a sterile tube into a cell separator machine.
