Analysis of Iron Stores in the Plateletpheresis Donors / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To understand the iron stores of the plateletpheresis donors, so as to provide some new experimental data for further exploration and more perfect health examination criteria of the plateletpheresis donors.@*METHODS@#A total of 297 plateletheresis donors conformed to standard in October 2018 were selected by the cross sectional study. The related factors affecting iron stores were analyzed; the effect of plateletpheresis times of donation on the levels of the hemoglobin(Hb) and serum ferritin(SF) as well as the iron deficency rate in the blood donors was also analyzed; the iron stores in the blood donors was evaluated.@*RESULTS@#The SF level in plateletpheresis donors negatively correlated with annual plateletphersis times of donation（r=-0.416, P＜0.001）; The SF level decreased with the increase of annual times of donation（P＜0.05）; The iron deficiency rate in plateletpheresis donors showed the increase trend with the increase of annual times of donation. The iron deficiency rate in male and femal with 18-23 times of donation was 12.5%(8/64) and 40%(6/15) respectively.@*CONCLUSION@#The blood center should reduce recruitment frequency and increase the testing of SF for regularly plateletpheresis donors.
