ABSTRACT
Objective In order to improve blood donors to understand the health education knowledge,this study designed and evaluated a new project,that is the health education pathway for primary apheresis donors.Methods A total of 2900 primary apheresis donors participated in the current study,who were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group.The experimental group was performed the health education pathway for primary apheresis donors,while the control group was conducted in the traditional health educational ways.We compared the basic information,the awareness rate of apheresis donation knowledge,the number of regnlar/repeated donors,and the frequency of donations.Results Two groups were matched with no group differences in basic information (P>0.05).After performed the health education pathway for primary apheresis donors,the awareness rate of apheresis donation knowledge was significantly improved from 23.6% to 84.3% (P<0.01).Moreover,the percentage of regular donors (40.2%) in the experimental group higher than the percentage (26.7%) in the control group(P<0.01).The average donation times of experimental group (3.8) was also higher than the control group.There were 79.2% donors changed to regular/repeated donors higher than the percentage (66.4%) in the control group,and the average frequency of apheresis of those regular/repeated apheresis donors (7.4) in the experimental group higher than the control group (6.4) (P<0.01).Conclusion As showed in our results,the health education pathway for primary apheresis donors could effectively help donors to understand the knowledge of blood donation and health care,and promote team construction of regular donors.We hope,in the future,the health education pathway for primary apheresis donors could be widely spread.
