How long can blood be stored before transfusion..?

do nt the rbcs have a life span of only 120 days..? do they die when stored ..?

you just know. hey can you give me a thumbs up want to feel special

RBCs can be refrigerated to last quite a long time.

If ADSOL is added, they have a shelf life of 42 days from the date of draw. Otherwise, it is 21 days. They do not die when stored. The ADSOL is a "food" for them so they stay viable.

If there are rare antigens, they can be deep frozen to last longer.
