Phoenix officer donates blood less than a year after being shot on the job

PHOENIX — Less than a year ago, Phoenix Police Department Officer Morgan Bullis was receiving blood transfusions as part of her recovery after being shot on the job. On Tuesday, she took part in giving the gift of life that helped save her own. In March 2023, the officer was shot in the hip and suffered injuries to her face from shrapnel during an incident near 7th and Southern avenues. At the time of her injury, the 26-year-old officer had been with the Phoenix Police Department for less than a year. Several months of recovery went by and Officer Bullis returned to her job in July. Officer Bullis was among multiple first responders who sat in blood donation chairs Tuesday during a Vitalant event to kick off their holiday blood drive. “Every day, my fellow brothers and sisters face difficult and dangerous situations in the line of duty,” said Officer Bullis. “A strong blood supply can make the difference of living and being able to go home.” Police officers and firefighters were invited by Vitalant to roll up their sleeves at the Hall of Flame museum. Vitalant representatives say every day, over 600 blood donors are needed to meet the needs of our state’s hospitals. ”We’re getting ready to enter our toughest week of the year for blood supply, basically the week between Christmas and New Years,” said Sue Thew with Vitalant. You can find out how to give blood through Vitalant by clicking here. Those who donate blood from Dec. 1-10 will receive a voucher for a complimentary admission to the Hall of Flame Fire Museum. You can also get a $10 gift card when you donate through Dec. 17.

Blood Glucose test strips are used to test for the presence of glucose in the blood. Glucose is a sugar found in the blood and used by the body for energy. Test strips are usually made of paper or plastic and have a special coating that reacts with glucose. The strip changes color when it comes into contact with glucose. This change can be read on a meter calibrated to show blood glucose levels.Test strips are an important part of diabetes treatment. They allow people with diabetes to check their blood sugar levels at home and make sure they are staying within their target range. Test strips can also be used to check for ketones, which are a sign your body isn’t getting enough insulin. Hence, there is increasing demand for blood glucose test strips across the globe Request Sample Copy of this Report @ https://www.coherentmarketinsights.com/insight/request-sample/6124 Market Statistics: The global blood glucose test strips market is estimated to account for US$ 10.7 Bn in terms of value by the end of 2023.

Back to Healio The FDA has cleared a traumatic brain injury blood test for commercial availability, paving the way for its distribution to hospitals in the United States. According to a release from Abbott, the test will run on the company’s Alinity i laboratory instrument, which aims to provide clinicians with a rapid, objective way to assess mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) or concussion in individuals. The FDA has cleared a novel blood-based biomarker test to assess traumatic brain injury, allowing for its distribution to health care centers across the U.S. Image: Adobe Stock Alinity i can be employed within 12 hours of a suspected TBI. The test, which involves blood drawn from an arm, measures two biomarkers that, in elevated concentrations, are highly indicative of brain injury, Abbott said in the release. Results can be achieved within 18 minutes to help clinicians assess concussion and triage patients. A negative test would enable health care professionals to rule out a CT scan, thereby eliminating longer wait times for treatment, per the release. For those who sustain TBI, effects are variable from a few days post-injury or may be permanent, and individuals are more likely to sustain one or more TBI after the first instance. Misdiagnosis or lack of diagnosis can worsen short- and long-term outcomes; therefore, tools that enable rapid evaluation TBI or concussion are essential to proper treatment. “Now that this test will be widely available in labs across the country, medical centers will be able to offer an objective blood test that can aid in concussion assessment,” Beth McQuiston, MD, medical director in Abbott’s diagnostics business, said in the release. “That’s great news for both doctors and people who are trying to find out if they have suffered a traumatic brain injury.” Read more about Add topic to email alerts Receive an email when new articles are posted on Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-loading-text="Loading ” data-action=”subscribe”> Subscribe Added to email alerts We were unable to process your request.
