The purpose of the Bloodless Medicine and Surgery Unit at Centro Médico Teknon is to provide quality care both to patients who only accept transfusions made with their own blood and to those who reject any type of transfusion and refuse the use of blood components, always respecting the principle of patient autonomy.


The Unit is made up of highly specialised professionals who are experts in the use of bloodless techniques and who study each case individually in order to offer the best treatment.
