LABORATORY & BLOOD BANK SERVICES
Our Clinical Microbiology Laboratory is key to infection control, enabling early detection and targeted management of hospital-acquired infections. By providing rapid, accurate data, it supports precise diagnoses, effective treatments, and improved patient outcomes.
Comprehensive Transfusion Services
- 24-Hour Blood Bank Availability
Our round-the-clock blood bank ensures uninterrupted access to safe, screened blood and its components for both emergency and scheduled transfusions. This 24/7 service plays a critical role in supporting trauma care, surgeries, and critical medical conditions. - Personalised Blood Component Therapy
We offer a complete range of blood products including whole blood, platelets, fresh frozen plasma (FFP), and cryoprecipitate. This allows for precise, patient-specific transfusion therapy in cases such as anaemia, clotting disorders, and major blood loss. - Stringent Blood Safety Protocols
All blood donations undergo thorough screening using advanced chemiluminescence immunoassay technology. This highly sensitive technique detects transfusion-transmissible infections such as HIV and hepatitis, ensuring a safe and reliable blood supply. - Targeted Apheresis Solutions
Our apheresis unit provides targeted component collection such as single donor platelets and therapeutic plasmapheresis. These services are especially beneficial for patients with bleeding disorders, autoimmune conditions, or those undergoing chemotherapy. - Transfusion Safety for Immunocompromised Patients
To enhance safety in immunocompromised or post-transplant patients, we use a dedicated blood irradiator to deactivate lymphocytes in transfused products. This minimises the risk oftransfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease and other adverse reactions. - Advanced Diagnostic Imaging
We offer advanced 3D and 4D ultrasound imaging that delivers real-time, high-resolution visualisations. These technologies are particularly valuable in obstetrics, abdominal scans, and vascular assessments for precise and early diagnoses.
Round-the-Clock Laboratory Diagnostics
- 24/7 Access to Laboratory Services
Our clinical laboratory operates 24/7, providing uninterrupted diagnostic support to inpatient, outpatient, and emergency services. This ensures timely test results, facilitating quick clinical decisions and continuous patient care. - Expert Consultant Oversight
A dedicated team of full-time consultants specialising in Pathology, Microbiology, and Biochemistry leads the laboratory services. Their clinical insight and diagnostic accuracy enhance the quality of patient care across departments. - Automated and Efficient Testing Systems
The lab is equipped with fully automated biochemistry and immunoassay analysers that ensure high-throughput, consistent, and error-free results. Automation significantly improves turnaround times and supports a wide range of routine and specialised tests. - Advanced Haematology Analysis
We utilise sophisticated 5-part differential cell counters with reticulocyte counting capabilities for detailed blood analysis. This advanced technology aids in diagnosing and monitoring conditions such as anaemia, infections, and haematologic disorders like leukaemia. - Rapid Detection of Bloodstream Infections
Our automated blood culture system provides early and accurate identification of pathogens responsible for bloodstream infections. This enables timely, targeted antibiotic therapy—crucial for managing sepsis and other life-threatening conditions. - Comprehensive Pathology and Cellular Diagnostics
The laboratory offers an extensive suite of diagnostic services including cytology, histopathology, cytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry. These specialised investigations are essential for the diagnosis of cancers, inflammatory diseases, and complex systemic conditions, supporting personalised and precise medical treatment.
