    Abstract:
    Use of blood, albumin and infusion solutions is one of the essential measures in management of war casualties which significantly contributes to the decline in mortality rate of war injured. Human blood and albumin represents the critical national resources which, beside the other, are characterised by limitation of sources and manace of enemy's combat operations. However, because blood and albumin would not be available in sufficient quantities, it is necessary to provide solutions for infusion, since the infusion is the obligatory component of modern management of injured in war and peace. For this reason each injured should be provided 0.35 l of blood, 0.25 l of 5% albumin solution, 0.5 l of 6% clinical dextrane solution and one litre of crystalloid solutions. The availability of these quantities is directly proportional with the effectiveness of the systems for provision of blood, albumin and infusion solutions. The success of the systems depend on realisation of the definite prerequisites, especially of mass and well-organised blood donor service, qualified blood collecting personnel and modern equipment including mobile laboratories for production of solutions for infusion.
