While more than half of Americans are eligible to give blood, less than 5 percent actually donate. Although scientists are working to develop alternatives, there are no artificial substitutes. New techniques that allow some patients to donate their own blood and receive it, if needed, during or after surgery are helping to make more efficient use of each unit.
