An imblance between the blood supply and demand could lead to failure in blood transfusion services in any country. Especially in cases where mortality and morbidity may cause to worsen in situations. The demand of for blood and its products are a significant problem of the Eldoret Regional Blood Transfusion Center (ERBTC). According to the study by Kavulabu et. al. (2022), the ERBTC has followed the provision recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Although these provision set, whole blood is more commonly used especially in resource-limited settings because of the lack of facilities and cost implications in component preparation
