RESUMEN
【Objective】 To investigate the willingness of whole blood donors to donate apheresis platelets and analyze its influencing factors. 【Methods】 A total of 400 whole blood donors from Kunshan Blood Station and Leshan Blood Station from January to May, 2023 were surveyed by random sampling, and their willingness to donate apheresis platelets were analyzed by univariate analysis and binary logistic regression analysis. 【Results】 A total of 386 valid questionnaires were collected, with a recovery rate of 96.5%. Among the 386 whole blood donors, 177 were willing to donate apheresis platelets, accounting for 45.9%. Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, education level, blood donation times, average blood donation volume, adverse reactions to blood donation, understanding of platelets, and family members' attitude towards blood donation were the main factors affecting the willingness of whole blood donors to donate platelets, and binary logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, blood donation times, average blood donation volume, understanding of platelets and family members' attitude towards blood donation were the main factors. 【Conclusion】 Targeted recruitment of whole blood donors should be conducted to recruit more apheresis platelet donors, so as to meet clinical demand of apheresis platelets.
