Nita Radhakrishnan: Strengthening Comprehensive Thalassemia Care at UP HEMATOCON
Nita Radhakrishnan, Additional Professor and HOD of Pediatric Hematology-Oncology at Post Graduate Institute of Child Health, shared on LinkedIn:
”In Uttar Pradesh alone, with a beta thalassemia carrier rate of 3–4% and ~4.8 million annual births, it is estimated that 1,000–2,000 children with β-thalassemia major are born each year.
The number increases to 10,000–12,000 estimated births per year for India.
At UP HEMATOCON, we discussed strengthening comprehensive thalassemia care — from screening and prevention to advanced therapies and BMT.
Prevention, policy, and access to quality care must move together.”
