webfact Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 Call for A- blood after Brit expat suffers motorbike crash head injuryPhuket Gazette PHUKET: -- The Phuket blood bank at Vachira Phuket Hospital is calling for donations of A- blood following an operation on British national Marc Harrington yesterday.Mr Harrington, 66, was admitted to hospital for a head injury sustained in a motorbike accident in Phuket on June 22.“He underwent an operation yesterday, in which we needed to use A- blood. He is showing limited responses to stimuli and he is on assisted breathing,” a nurse at Vachira Hospital’s Neurosurgical Procedures Department confirmed.“He had low thrombocytopenia, a low platelet count. He used to have a count of 7,000, but he is much better now with a count of about 90,000,” she added.“We still have two units of A- blood in the bank, but it would be prudent to have more in stock, for Mr Harrington or anyone else who may need it,” the nurse said.Source: http://www.phuketgazette.net/phuket_news/2013/Call-for-A-blood-after-Brit-expat-suffers-motorbike-crash-head-injury-21609.html-- Phuket Gazette 2013-07-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
