Objetivo:Analisar o efeito da tele-enfermagem no processo adaptativo de pessoas com estomia intestinal. Método: Ensaio clínico randomizado, unicego. Aplicou-se a escala de verificação do nível de adaptação da pessoa com estomia, e formaram-se dois grupos. O grupo controle recebeu atendimento convencional com profissionais do centro de referência, e o grupo intervenção obteve o acompanhamento convencional associado à intervenção complementar via telefone (três chamadas telefônicas realizadas no 20º, 40º e 60º dia após contato inicial). Ao final da intervenção, os participantes foram avaliados novamente pela escala. O recrutamento ocorreu desde o primeiro contato e contou com uma amostra de 16 participantes no grupo intervenção e 17 no grupo controle. Resultados: Notou-se semelhança nos níveis de adaptação no baseline entre os dois grupos, entretanto dados do pós-intervenção demonstraram diferença significante dos grupos no decorrer do estudo e menores valores das médias do grupo controle comparados às medidas do grupo intervenção, indicando maior nível de adaptação no grupo intervenção. Conclusão: O estudo verificou o efeito da tele-enfermagem no processo adaptativo da pessoa com estomia e sugere benefícios no acompanhamento complementar via tele-enfermagem no nível de adaptação de pessoas com estomia de tempo ≤ 12 meses de cirurgia.

Objective: To analyze the effect of telenursing on the adaptive process of people with intestinal ostomy. Method: Randomized, single-blind clinical trial. The verification scale of the level of adaptation of the person with ostomy was applied, and two groups were formed. The control group received conventional care with professionals from the reference center, and the intervention group received conventional follow-up associated with the complementary intervention via telephone (three phone calls on the 20th, 40th and 60th day after initial contact). At the end of the intervention, the participants were evaluated again through the scale. Recruitment occurred from the first contact and had a sample of 16 participants in the intervention group and 17 in the control group. Results: There was a similarity in the levels of adaptation at baseline between the two groups. However, post-intervention data showed a significant difference between the groups during the study and lower values of the means of the control group compared to the measures of the intervention group, demonstrating a higher level of adaptation in the intervention group. Conclusion: The study verified the effect of telenursing on the adaptive process of the person with a stoma and suggests benefits in complementary monitoring via telenursing at the level of adaptation of people with a stoma after ≤ 12 months of surgery.

Evaluating perspective and quality of life of glaucoma patients during the COVID-19 pandemic in India: Results of a telephone survey

Purpose: The past few years have been difficult in the lives of most glaucoma patients in view of the COVID?19 pandemic. Our aim was to find out patients’ perspective and disruption of their quality of life during the COVID?19 pandemic by conducting a telephone survey among glaucoma patients. Methods: This was a cross?sectional study involving the glaucoma patients of a tertiary eye care hospital in India. Patients who had completed at least five years of follow?up before 2020 were randomized by a random number generator. A validated (forward–backward translation and completed pilot analysis) set of 14 questionnaires was administered to the patients, the latter of whom were telephonically interviewed by one of the investigators in February 2022. The entire data was audio?recorded. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26 was used. Results: Out of 1141 patients with >5 years of follow?up, 103 were selected by randomization. A large group of 46 patients (44.6%) admitted to glaucoma affecting their daily activities. Only 12 (11.6%) admitted to being irregular with their drops. Thirty?four (33%) patients felt that their glaucoma was deteriorating and 31 (30.1%) had fear of blindness. Ninety?five patients (92.7%) felt that they were safe under the care of the treating doctor. There were 46 (44.6%) out of 103 patients who did not turn up for follow?up for six months or more. Lockdown (36.2%) and travel?expenses (27.6%) were the two most common reasons for the loss to follow?up visits. Conclusion: Nearly half of the long?term glaucoma patients were lost to follow?up during the COVID?19 pandemic. Glaucoma affecting daily lives and fear of losing vision turned out to be significant observations in the telephone survey. This fear seemed to be ameliorated by the majority still feeling safe by being in touch with their doctor for continued care even during the COVID?19 pandemic.

Method exploration of telephone follow-up in clinical research / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Telephone follow-up is one of the important ways to follow up patients. High-quality follow-up can benefit both doctors and patients. However, clinical research-related follow-up is often faced with problems such as time-consuming, laborious and poor patient compliance. The authors belong to a team that has been committed to the study of patient-reported outcomes for a long time. The team has carried out long-term follow-up of symptoms, daily function and postoperative complications of more than 1 000 patients after lung cancer surgery, and accumulated certain experience. In this paper, the experience of telephone follow-up was summarized and discussed with relevant literatures from the aspects of clarifying the purpose of clinical research follow-up, understanding the needs of patients in follow-up, and using follow-up skills.

Correlation between traditional Chinese medicine and reduced risk of readmission in rheumatoid arthritis patients with hypoproteinemia:a retrospective cohort study / 中国中药杂志

This study aimed to explore the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and reduced risk of readmission in patients having rheumatoid arthritis with hypoproteinemia(RA-H). A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 2 437 rheumatoid arthritis patients in the information system database of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine from 2014 to 2021, and 476 of them were found to have hypoproteinemia. The patients were divided into TCM users and non-TCM users by propensity score matching. Exposure was defined as the use of oral Chinese patent medicine or herbal decoction for ≥1 month. Cox regression analysis was performed to explore the risk factors of clinical indicators of rheumatoid arthritis. Additionally, the use of TCM during hospitalization was analyzed, and analysis of association rules was conducted to investigate the correlation between TCM, improvement of indicators and readmission of patients. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was plotted to compare the readmission rate of TCM users and non-TCM users. It was found the readmission rate of RA-H patients was significantly higher than that of RA patients. By propensity score matching, 232 RA-H patients were divided into TCM group(116 cases) and non-TCM group(116 cases). Compared with the conditions in the non-TCM group, the readmission rate of the TCM group was lowered(P<0.01), and the readmission rate of middle-aged and elderly patients was higher than that of young patients(P<0.01). Old age was a risk factor for readmission of RA-H patients, while TCM, albumin(ALB) and total protein(TP) were the protective factors. During hospitalization, the TCMs used for RA-H patients were mainly divided into types of activating blood and resolving stasis, relaxing sinew and dredging collaterals, clearing heat and detoxifying, and invigorating spleen and resolving dampness. The improvement of rheumatoid factor(RF), immunoglobulin G(IgG), erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), C-reactive protein(CRP) and ALB was closely related to TCM. On the basis of western medicine treatment, the application of TCM could reduce the readmission rate of RA-H patients, and longer use of TCM indicated lower readmission rate.

Validity and reliability of the persian version of the modified telephone interview for cognitive status among community-dwelling older adults in Iran / Validade e confiabilidade da versão persa da Entrevista Telefônica para o Estado Cognitivo: modificada entre idosos da comunidade no Irã

ABSTRACT. Due to the increase in the population of the elderly, there is a growing trend in some diseases such as cognitive disorders (dementia) which are common in this era, and the diagnosis and treatment of this disease are still facing challenges. Therefore, early identification of cognitive disorders is of particular importance. In this regard, the use of any tool or cognitive tests may not be enough to diagnose dementia in the early stages and a special tool is needed. Objective: The validity and reliability of the Persian version of the Modified Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (P-TICS-M) in older adults living in the Iranian community for a comprehensive screening of mild cognitive impairment and dementia was investigated. Methods: In the first phase, translation, re-translation, and word-taking were performed by using the face validity and content validity. In the second phase, a stratified convenient sampling with 150 participants aged ≥60 years was conducted based on cognitive status using the global deterioration scale in 2018. The external and internal reliability of the P-TICS-M using the interclass correlation coefficient and Cronbach's alpha coefficient of total items of this tool were estimated. Results: The mean age of the participants was 68.6 (standard deviation±7.4) years. According to global deterioration scale, 87 (58.0%) had normal cognition, 40 (26.7%) had mild cognitive impairment, and 23 (15.3%) had dementia. The Spearman's correlation coefficient between P-TICS-M scores and Mini-Mental State Examination scale was 0.764. In exploratory factor analysis, seven domains were detected, which were compatible with those defined by the tool developer. The Cronbach's alpha of the P-TICS-M was 0.920. The absolute agreement between test-retest score was >0.90. The sensitivity of 92.2, 94.8, and 100%, and also the specificity of 79.4, 88.2, and 89.8% were calculated for detecting subjects with dementia, respectively. Furthermore, a mild cognitive impairment cutoff of >28 was determined. Conclusion: The development and validation of a P-TICS-M tool can be useful in identifying older adult people with cognitive impairment. Demographic characteristics (level of education, age) can also affect the cutoff point of this tool.

RESUMO. Por causa do aumento da população de idosos, há uma tendência crescente de algumas doenças, como os distúrbios cognitivos (demência), que são comuns nessa época, e o diagnóstico e tratamento dessa doença ainda enfrentam desafios. A identificação precoce de distúrbios cognitivos é de particular importância. Nesse sentido, a utilização de qualquer ferramenta ou testes cognitivos pode não ser suficiente para diagnosticar a demência nas fases iniciais e é necessária uma ferramenta especial. Objetivo: A validade e a confiabilidade da versão persa da Entrevista Telefônica para o Estado Cognitivo - Modificada (P-TICS-M) em idosos que vivem na comunidade iraniana para uma triagem abrangente de comprometimento cognitivo leve e demência foram investigadas. Métodos: Primeira fase, tradução, retradução e tomada de palavras utilizando validade de face e validade de conteúdo. Na segunda fase, foi conduzida uma amostragem estratificada por conveniência com 150 participantes com idade ≥60 anos baseada em estado cognitivo por meio da escala de deterioração global em 2018. Estimaram-se a confiabilidade externa e interna do P-TICS-M por meio do coeficiente de correlação interclasses e o coeficiente alfa de Cronbach do total de itens deste instrumento. Resultados: A média de idade dos participantes foi de 68,6 (desvio padrão±7,4) anos. De acordo com a escala de deterioração global, 87 (58,0%) apresentavam cognição normal, 40 (26,7%) apresentavam comprometimento cognitivo leve e 23 (15,3%) apresentavam demência. O coeficiente de correlação de Spearman entre os escores do P-TICS-M e a escala do Mini-Exame do Estado Mental foi de 0,764. Na análise fatorial exploratória, detectaram-se sete domínios, os quais eram compatíveis com aqueles definidos pelo desenvolvedor da ferramenta. O alfa de Cronbach do P-TICS-M foi de 0,920. A concordância absoluta entre o escore teste-reteste foi >0,90. Calculou-se, respectivamente, sensibilidade de 92,2, 94,8 e 100%, e também especificidade de 79,4, 88,2 e 89,8% para a detecção de indivíduos com demência. Além disso, determinou-se um ponto de corte do comprometimento cognitivo leve >28. Conclusão: O desenvolvimento e validação de uma ferramenta P-TICS-M pode ser útil na identificação de idosos com comprometimento cognitivo. As características demográficas (escolaridade, idade) também podem afetar o ponto de corte dessa ferramenta.

Correlation of traditional Chinese medicine to reduced re-admission risk in ankylosing spondylitis patients with dampness-heat syndrome: a retrospective cohort study / 中国中药杂志

This study aimed to analyze the impact of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) on the risk of re-admission for ankylosing spondylitis(AS) patients with dampness-heat syndrome. In this study, a telephone follow-up was conducted on 1 295 AS inpatients, and after screening and exclusions, 1 044 successfully followed-up patients were included. A retrospective cohort study was conducted using propensity score matching(PSM), and a Cox proportional risk model was employed to assess the effect of various factors on the risk of re-admission for AS patients with dampness-heat syndrome. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to analyze the effect of TCM intervention time on re-admission. The incidence rate of dampness-heat syndrome in AS patients was found to be 51.3% in this study. After 1∶1 PSM, 385 AS patients with dampness-heat syndrome and 385 AS patients without dampness-heat syndrome were included for analysis. The results indicated that the re-admission rate was higher for patients with dampness-heat syndrome compared with those without dampness-heat syndrome(P<0.05). AS patients with dampness-heat syndrome in the TCM group had a lower admission rate than those in the non-TCM group(P=0.01). The cox proportional risk model demonstrated that TCM was an independent protective factor, as it reduced the risk of re-admission by 35%(HR=0.35, 95%CI[0.26, 0.95], P<0.05). Moreover, the subgroup with high exposure(time to use Chinese medicine >12 months) had a significantly lower risk of re-admission than that with low TCM exposure(time to use Chinese medicine ≤12 months). The re-admission rate for AS patients with dampness-heat syndrome was higher than that without dampness-heat syndrome, and TCM was identified as a protective factor in reducing the risk of re-admission. Furthermore, a longer duration of TCM intervention was associated with a lower risk of re-admission.

Effect of preoperative telephone interview in the cancellation rate of daytime surgery in eye hospitals / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

@#AIM: To analyze the role of preoperative telephone interview in the cancellation rate for ophthalmic daytime surgery. <p>METHODS: A prospective, single center study was conducted to compare and analyze the cancellation of daytime surgery in two time periods. The control group was from June 2018 to June 2019, only routine nursing and health education were implemented. The patient in the intervention group were from October 2019 to October 2020, add the telephone interview of the day before operation was added by the nurses in the ophthalmic operating room. <p>RESULTS: The main reasons for canceling the operation included upper respiratory tract infection, abnormal blood glucose, abnormal blood pressure and physiological period, abnormal preoperative examination results, and patients didn't follow the doctor's advice to use preoperative eye drops. In the control group, there were 16 974 cases scheduled for daytime operation, 16 332 cases actually operated, and the cancellation rate of operation was 3.78%(642 cases cancelled). In the intervention group, 17 694 cases were scheduled for daytime operation, and 17 296 cases were actually operated, with the cancellation rate of 2.25%(398 cases cancelled). The disease distribution and cancellation reasons of the two groups were statistically significant(<i>P</i><0.05).<p>CONCLUSION: Telephone interview can effectively reduce the cancellation rate of ophthalmic daytime operation, provide targeted and personalized pre-hospital guidance for patients, improve the compliance of patients and their families to complete preoperative preparation, reduce the psychological anxiety of patients before operation, and improve the medical experience of patients.

Impact of dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation on survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A Meta-analysis / 中华急诊医学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the outcome of the patients receiving dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA-CPR) delivered by first-responders who witnessed the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) before the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) arrived.Methods:We performed a search of the relevant literature exploring major scientific databases. We assessed the quality of the included cohort study according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version 5.1.0. Meta-analysis was performed on three outcome indicators (recovery of spontaneous circulation survival to hospital discharge and survival with favourable neurologic outcome) using the Revman5.3 software.Results:A total of 21 studies with 349 822 patients were selected for the meta-analysis, including 182 125 patients in the DA-CPR group and 167 697 in the CPR-only group. The meta-analysis showed no significant difference between the DA-CPR and CPR-only groups in ROSC [ RR=1.10, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 0.94-1.29, P=0.24], survival to hospital discharge ( RR=1.10, 95% CI: 0.90-1.34, P=0.34) and survival with favourable neurologic outcome ( RR=1.01, 95% CI: 0.79-1.28, P=0.97) of the patients in America, Japan and Korea. However, there was a significant difference between the DA-CPR and the CPR-only groups in ROSC ( RR=2.61, 95% CI:1.53-4.46, P=0.0005), survival to hospital discharge( RR=6.08, 95% CI: 1.84-20.04, P=0.003), and survival with favourable neurologic outcome( RR=9.76, 95% CI: 1.87-51.02, P=0.007) of the patients in China. Conclusions:The overall effect of DA-CPR is significantly different for each country. In detail, DA-CPR offers a survival advantage (Return of spontaneous circulation, survival to hospital discharge and survival with favourable neurologic outcome) over CPR alone in China but no advantage in developed countries.

Effectiveness of aerial wildlife crossings: Do wildlife use rope bridges more than hazardous structures to cross roads? / Eficacia de los pasos aéreos sobre carretera: ¿Cruza la fauna más por puentes de cuerda que por otras estructuras peligrosas?

Abstract Introduction: Although wildlife crossing structures have proven successful at reducing wildlife-vehicle collisions and linking fragmented habitat, their ability to prevent electrocutions of arboreal wildlife has not been closely examined. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of aerial rope bridges in restoring habitat connectivity for arboreal species in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, while preventing electrocutions by determining 1) what species are using the rope bridges and 2) whether wildlife prefer to use rope bridges instead of other hazardous structures that cross the roads (such as telephone cables, which are often in close proximity to electric wires). Methods: From January to May 2016, nine rope bridges along the highly-trafficked main road that extends from Quepos to Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, were monitored using camera traps, and ten rope bridges were observed directly along a paved side road off the main road. Results: A total of 11 species were seen using the bridges, and 1 540 crossings were witnessed via camera traps and observations (1 234 via camera traps, 306 during observations). Results from a paired t-test showed no significant difference in the average number of individuals crossing the road via rope bridges versus telephone cables (t(8) = 1.027, P = 0.334). Conclusions: Rope bridges are used by a variety of arboreal wildlife species with a high degree of frequency; however, due to the equally high usage of telephone cables by arboreal wildlife, they are insufficient to prevent wildlife electrocutions on their own. Rope bridges should be installed in tandem with other methods to prevent electrocutions, such as insulating electric wires, to facilitate the safe passage of wildlife over roads.

Resumen Introducción: Aunque los pasos de fauna han demostrado ser exitosos para reducir las colisiones entre vehículos y vida silvestre y vincular el hábitat fragmentado, su capacidad para prevenir electrocuciones de la vida silvestre arbórea no se ha examinado a fondo. Objetivo: Evaluar la efectividad de los puentes aéreos de cuerdas para restaurar la conectividad del hábitat de las especies arbóreas en Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica y al mismo tiempo prevenir las electrocuciones al determinar 1) qué especies están usando los puentes de cuerda y 2) si la vida silvestre prefiere usar puentes de cuerda en lugar de otras estructuras peligrosas que cruzan las carreteras (como cables telefónicos, que frecuentemente están muy cerca de cables eléctricos). Métodos: De enero a mayo de 2016, se monitorearon nueve puentes de cuerda a lo largo de la carretera principal altamente transitada que se extiende desde Quepos a Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, utilizando cámaras trampa y la observación directa en diez puentes de cuerda a lo largo de una carretera pavimentada más pequeña fuera de la carretera principal. Resultados: Se observaron un total de 11 especies utilizando los puentes y se presenciaron 1 540 cruces mediante cámaras trampa y observaciones (1 234 mediante cámaras trampa, 306 durante las observaciones). Los resultados de una prueba t pareada no mostraron diferencias significativas en el número promedio de individuos que cruzan la carretera a través de puentes de cuerda versus cables telefónicos, t (8) = 1.027, P = 0.334. Conclusiones: Los puentes de cuerdas son utilizados por una variedad de especies de vida silvestre arbóreas con un alto grado de frecuencia; sin embargo, debido al uso igualmente elevado de cables telefónicos por parte de la vida silvestre arbórea, se considera que son insuficientes para prevenir las electrocuciones de la vida silvestre por sí solas. Los puentes de cuerda deben instalarse junto con otros métodos para evitar electrocuciones, como cables eléctricos aislados, para facilitar el paso seguro de la vida silvestre por las carreteras.

Abstract This paper aims to evaluate the performance of PHC from the perspective of users and its association with sociodemographic characteristics, self-reported health conditions, and behavioral risk factors for Chronic Noncommunicable Diseases. This is a population-based cross-sectional study with data from the 2015 VIGITEL Telephone Survey. The Primary Care Assessment Tool short version was adopted. The study population covers adults over 18 years of age who used PHC services in Belo Horizonte in the last 12 months (n = 872). The multiple logistic regression model was performed to estimate the odds ratio. We observed that adults without a health insurance plan are 3.21 (95% CI 2.08-4.96) more likely than those with a health insurance plan to evaluate PHC with a high score (≥ 6.6), and adults with low schooling (95% CI 1.48-5.32), people with diabetes (95% CI 1.05-3.24), obese (95% CI 1.20-3.24), and older adults (95% CI 1.00-1.41) were 2.81, 1.84, 1.97, and 1.19 more likely to report a high score for PHC quality than the others, respectively. The use of the PCATool short version in a telephone survey showed a new possibility for PHC performance assessment and can become useful in managing health services.

Comparison of two screening scales used by 120 dispatchers for early identification of pre-hospital stroke patients and telephone guidance for treatment / 中华危重病急救医学

Objective:To observe the effect of two different screening scales used by 120 dispatchers to early identify stroke patients and give telephone guidance for treatment.Methods:From October 2018 to August 2019, 2 027 stroke and suspect stroke patients who called the Kaifeng 120 Emergency Center were enrolled. The differences in the final positive rate of stroke diagnosis and the incidence of adverse events were compared and analyzed in 1 020 cases using recognition of stroke in the emergency room (ROSIER) and 1 007 cases using facial drooping, arm weakness, speech difficulties and time (FAST) scale scores for telephone guidance.Results:The positive rate of stroke identification in ROSIER score group was higher than that in FAST score group [31.4% (320/1 020) vs. 29.3% (295/1 007)], the false report rate was significantly lower than that in FAST score group [14.9% (152/1 020) vs. 18.8% (189/1 007), P < 0.05], the incidence of adverse events caused by vomiting, falling from bed and convulsions in ROSIER score group were lower than those in FAST score group [0.5% (1/208) vs. 2.2% (4/185), 0% (0/26) vs. 20.0% (2/10), 2.1% (1/48) vs. 10.3% (3/29)], however, the incidence of adverse events caused by falling out of bed was significantly lower ( P < 0.05). The incidence of total adverse events in ROSIER score group was significantly lower than that in FAST score group [0.7% (2/305) vs. 3.8% (9/235), P < 0.05]. The time of FAST score group was shorter than that of ROSIER score group (minutes: 1.2±0.2 vs. 2.5±0.3), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:Two different scales can be used to early identify stroke patients and provide timely pre-hospital guidance, thus reduce the incidence of adverse events. Although the ROSIER score takes longer time, the dispatchers guide the patients by phone which does not affect the dispatch time.

And it′s urgent to improve relevant laws, policies and guidance standards, and vigorously promote and popularize T-CPR.

Evaluation of the effect of nursing intervention on the compliance of non-invasive mechanical ventilation in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome / 国际生物医学工程杂志

Objective:To explore the effect of nurse-led management model in adherence of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) who underwent non-invasive mechanical ventilation.Methods:92 patients with severe OSAHS diagnosed by polysomnography(PSG) and treated with non-invasive mechanical ventilation in Tianjin medical university general hospital from September 2019 to August 2020 were enrolled. The patients were divided into intervention group (45 cases) and control group (47 cases) by random number table. Then, basing on routine treatment and subsequent visit, the patients in intervention group received regular telephone follow-up interviews within one week of ventilator purchasing, and the interview was based on a standard telephone follow-up manuscript designed by Duffy and lasted for six months. The patients in control group received routine nursing treatment and regular subsequent visit, and were not followed up by telephone, but were encouraged to have telephone consultation. The Epworth sleepiness scale(ESS) scores of the two groups before and after the intervention and the compliance of non-invasive mechanical ventilation of the two groups after the intervention were compared.Results:After the intervention, the ESS scores of the two groups were lower than those before the intervention ( P<0.001), and the ESS scores of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group ( P<0.001). After the intervention, the compliance of noninvasive mechanical ventilation in the intervention group was better than that in the control group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The nurse-led management model in combination with telephone follow-up can improve the sleepiness of patients and the adherence of using non-invasive mechanical.

Implementation and application of telephone recruitment for apheresis platelet donors: based on the whole process information management of blood collection and supply / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To develop and implement a precise and efficient telephone recruitment strategy for apheresis platelet donors based on the information management of blood collection and supply process. 【Methods】 A telephone recruitment strategy based on the whole process information management of apheresis platelet donors (hereinafter referred to as telephone recruitment) was formulated From January 1, 2019, apheresis platelet donors in Hangzhou, registered in the intelligent blood donor recruitment system(hereinafter referred to as the recruitment system), were recruited by telephone calls or (and) SMS reminders to inform re-donation interval, key points of recruitment consultation, blood donation appointment time and other precautions. Response rate, pass rate and blood donation rate of donors before(in 2018) and after( in 2019) the implementation of telephone recruitment, as well as the above three rates during the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020 in Hangzhou were collected and analyzed by χ2 test. 【Results】 The response rate, pass rate, and blood donation rate of apheresis platelet donors in Hangzhou before /after the implementation of telephone recruitment and during the COVID-19 epidemic were 28.52%(3 901/13 678)vs 30.52%(4 429/14 511)vs 39.36%(4 064/10 326), 73.80%(2 879/3 901)vs 77.83%(3 447/4 429)vs 78.20%(3 178/4 064)and 6.77%(2 879/42 553)vs 7.77%(3 447/44 366)vs 8.13%(3 178/39 077, respectively(P<0.05). In 2020, 85.94%(3 178/3 698) of apheresis donors were recruited by telephone(P<0.05). The proportion of apheresis donations successfully recruited by telephone in 2018 and 2019 accounted for 11.74% (2 879/24 519) and 12.48% (3 447/27 628), respectively(P<0.05), contributing 10.59% (4 030 U/38 040 U) and 11.38% (4 875 U/42 853 U) of units(P<0.05) that issued to the clinical. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the number of blood donors recruited by telephone and its proportion in 2020 decreased significantly as compared with those before the implementation of telephone recruitment (2019). 【Conclusion】 The telephone recruitment strategy based on the whole-process information management (system) of blood collection and supply can effectively improve the targeted recruitment of apheresis platelet donors and enhance its proportion of apheresis collection that issued to the clinical.
