Thalassemia Awareness & Testing considered as a Mega Event:
The Institute has decided to make an awareness drive as mega event. Hence, a camp of Thalassemia Awareness & Testing was named as “STOP THALASSEMIA”. As per the guidelines of GTU the parameters of Social Responsibility, Awareness & the Health of the students have been taken in view of priority.
Awareness Drive of Thalassemia:
A brief idea was given to the students about thalassemia as per following:
Thalassemia is an inherited (i.e., passed from parents to children through genes) blood disorder caused when the body doesn’t make enough of a protein called hemoglobin, an important part of red blood cells. When there isn’t enough hemoglobin, the body’s red blood cells don’t function properly and they last shorter periods of time, so there are fewer healthy red blood cells traveling in the bloodstream.
Participation:
Total 207 students of SEM-I were tested.
Total 283 students of SEM-IV were tested.
Total 490 students were tested for Thalassemia.
