People with cancer often need blood donations. For World Blood Donor Day we encourage anyone who is eligible to give blood to help save lives.

1/ Right, ANNEXA-I has dropped. The 1st ever RCT of a reversal agent for DOACs. Randomised patients with intracranial hemorrhage to andexanet alfa or usual care. Stopped early as it met its primary endpoint.

Anaemia in surgical patients is an issue - should we be giving IV iron after surgical blood loss?

As many of you noted, the stain used in these #MorphologyMonday images is the one we use for peripheral blood films in haematology (MGG). This is not a Gram stain.

Here are some other test results:

- Gram staining showed the bacterial populations to be red.

- Large, flat, matte colonies on blood agar.

- Pink colonies on MacConkey agar.

What could the bacteria be? And if your view has changed, why do they appear as they do (size and shape) on the peripheral blood film? 🤔

Patients are receiving blood transfusions every single day, 365 days per year. We need regular donations to make sure that the right type is available at the right time.
Have you booked your next donation? https://t.co/lE8MXBI8G3
