A venesection is a procedure that removes a controlled amount of blood from the body. It is used to treat conditions where lowering your blood volume or iron levels can improve your health. Venesection is commonly used for:

• Polycythaemia — reduces the number of red blood cells when the blood has become too thick.
• Haemochromatosis — reduces excess iron by removing iron-rich blood.

We offer a range of blood product transfusions to help manage blood-related conditions:

• Red cell transfusions — given when your red blood cell levels are low, to help improve energy, reduce fatigue and support your overall wellbeing.
• Platelet transfusions — given when your platelet levels are low, to help your blood clot properly and reduce the risk of bleeding.
• IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) therapy — a treatment made from donated antibodies that helps support your immune system. It is often used for autoimmune conditions or immune deficiencies.

We also provide a number of infusion therapies to treat blood and bone marrow disorders including:

• Azacitidine — a treatment given by subcutaneous infusion that helps control the production of abnormal blood cells. It is commonly used to treat Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).
