Blood Irradiators for AUH, Blood Bank and Immunology

This tender concerns the procurement of blood irradiators for the Aarhus University Hospital (AUH), specifically for the Blood Bank and Immunology departments. Blood irradiators are critical medical devices used to irradiate blood products, such as red blood cells and platelets, before transfusion. This process inactivates lymphocytes within the blood product, preventing transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease (TA-GvHD), a rare but often fatal complication that can occur when transfused lymphocytes from the donor engraft and attack the recipient's tissues. The procurement aims to ensure that AUH's Blood Bank and Immunology departments are equipped with modern, reliable, and efficient blood irradiation technology to enhance patient safety and improve the quality of blood transfusions. Key requirements for the irradiators are likely to include safety features, ease of use, processing capacity, compliance with relevant medical device regulations and standards, and potentially specific technical specifications related to radiation dosage and treatment time. The successful bidder will be responsible for the supply, installation, and possibly training and maintenance of these essential medical devices, contributing to the high standards of care provided at Aarhus University Hospital.
