CIHSR gets in-house blood centre
The Christian Institute of Health Science & Research (CIHSR), Dimapur, has now an in-house blood centre. The Blood Centre which is already operational, was formally inaugurated by Dr Joy Mammen, MD, Prof and head of Transfusion Medicine & Immunohaematology, CMC, Vellore on March 19.
The nod of approval to set up the facility was received earlier on February 8 following inspections from the Central and state authorities last year. It was the culmination of more than ten years of effort to get the sanction of the licencing authorities.
This is only the fourth functional blood centre in Nagaland and the second for Dimapur district. The other three are government-run, attached to the District Hospitals in Dimapur, Kohima and Mokokchung.
The Blood Centre at CIHSR can store up to 300 units of RBC and whole blood and up to 1000 units of FFP (Fresh Frozen Plasma) in a day. According to the Centre’s Technical Supervisor, KG Gaikhonlungpou, the storage capacity is fine for the time being. But given that Nagaland has only a few such centres at present, it would only bode well for everyone, if it is enhanced.
It can collect, store, and prepare various blood components and is open 24/7, while the window for blood donation is from 8:00 am-4:00 pm. It plans to introduce apheresis procedure and to further develop the CIHSR Blood Centre as a referral centre for training of blood centre technologists and doctors for Nagaland. Apheresis is a process/device, which separates blood into its various components like the conventional separators. Unlike the latter, the process has the capability to isolate and extract only the targeted component required by a patient, while returning the other components to the donor. This process requires the donor to be intravenously linked to the machine for the transfusion cycle to complete.

Young Naga tech-wizard develops ingenious devices
Young Naga tech-wizard develops ingenious devices
Most youngsters today are known for their social media addiction and dubious amount of time spent playing video games. However, twenty-year-old Belenso T Yimkhiung, a resident of Pungro town in Kiphire district, is breaking the mould.
With a natural curiosity for all things electronic, the precocious youngster’s latest project is called ‘Tiger,’ which is a voice-activated device that will enable people to have audio controlled lights in their homes. He also went to create Lifi—an audio transmission device using solar panel and LED lights.

Hornbill Festival 2021: CULTURAL SHOW
Cultural performances by various troupes at the ongoing Hornbill Festival 2021 held at Kisama Heritage Village, Kohima.
Addressing the inaugural of the state’s annual Hornbill Festival, Nagaland Chief Minister, Neiphiu Rio said the festival is a collaborative celebration of all the Naga tribes at one venue with an intention to promote all the 17 indigenous tribes of Nagaland, their culture and products to the rest of the world.
Rio on December 1 said that the state has been “fully energized, with renewed zeal and enthusiasm to revive the tourism industry,” and intensify its value for all its major stakeholders through the 22nd edition of the Hornbill Festival.
“It is one of the largest indigenous festivals whereby the uniqueness and diversity of our cultural identity is showcased here in all its grandeur,” he said.
Rio opined that this festival should be considered not only as a cultural festivity of mass get-togethers but also a platform to experience the unique identity and cultural legacy of the rich Naga traditions while also providing opportunities for the local economy to flourish.
