Blood By 1992 By NORMAN BLACK AP Military Writer WASHINGTON (AP) The Pentagon thanks to pioneering research work by a Navy laboratory has launched an unusual program to produce what would be the largest stockpile of frozen blood for use in emergencies The effort known as the Blood Program is designed to ensure that doc tors will have sufficient blood supplies overseas to treat com bat casualties during the early days of a war It calls for stockpiling 300000 units of frozen blood by 1992 The key to the program is research that has convinced military medical leaders that red blood cells platelets and plasma can be stored safely through new freezing techniques for much longer periods than had been thought possible Indeed work at the Naval Blood Research Laboratory in Boston indicates frozen red blood cells can be stored safely up to 20 years Lt Col Anthony Polk the director of the Military Blood Program Office said recently That contrasts with the cur rent method approved by the ood and Drug Administration which allows storage of frozen red blood cells for only three years goal is to build a stockpile and to bring selected (military) blood banks to the point where they can use some of these new said Cmdr Jerry Baker the deputy director of the blood office military blood system really been overhauled since World War added: Polk problem with the current system is that it calls for an ex tremely quick response with fresh blood drawn in the United States in the event of war And that would be difficult at best particularly if we have air Polk said The idea of building such a large stockpile of frozen blood grew out of a special study con ducted in 1984 Polk said Military and civilian medical ex perts were given the task of assessing re quirements" for blood over the next 20 years hence the name Military Blood Program 2004 In the process the panel reviewed the work of Dr Robert Valeri a Navy captain who retired last fall but wfyo still works at the Navy laboratory which is affiliated with the Boston University School of Medicine The panel concluded cumulative research over the past two decades offered a means of assuring a safe stockpile of frozen blood The concept was approved last year by Dr William Mayer the assis tant defense secretary for health affairs and advanced planning has now been completed Polk said i 9 At.
