Abstract Introduction- Blood is a crucial fluid that delivers waste and necessary compounds to cells, such as oxygen and minerals. It is composed of blood cells and plasma. Blood transfusion is the primary therapy in medical or surgical settings when there is no other option available. However, blood transfusions should be used with caution since 0 they might cause transfusion reactions or the spread of transmissible infections such as HbsAg, HCV, HIV, Syphilis, and malaria. Clinicians should only perform blood transfusions when absolutely required. We plan to investigate the use of blood components in a blood bank at a tertiary health care facility in Navi Mumbai. Material and methods- This is a retrospective cohort research in which statistics on blood requests and product use from January 2020 to December 2020 were gathered and evaluated at a tertiary care hospital's blood bank. Results- PRBCs are at the top of the list with 4130 units, primarily used in surgeries, accounting for 45.6% of total issuance. FFP is followed by 3160 units, which help in febrile diseases and operations, accounting for 34.9%. Platelets support oncological and infectious disorders with 1628 units (18%). Whole blood, which is essential in trauma and anaemia patients, totals 44 units (0.5%). Cryoprecipitates target particular difficulties with 94 units (1%). In comparison, PRBCs are the most commonly used, but whole blood is rarely used, underscoring the importance of tailoring blood component allocation to different medical demands. Conclusion- Efficient blood component allocation is critical, with PRBCs dominating utilisation. Tailored distribution maximises resource usage. Continuous monitoring of component demand is essential for a balanced supply. To properly allocate resources and address various medical demands, emphasise education on optimal component utilisation.
