Characteristics and countermeasures of blood donors with adverse reactions to apheresis platelet donation / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To compare and study the characteristics of blood donors with and without adverse reactions to apheresis platelet donation(ARAPD), and to study the influencing factors of blood donors participating in blood donation again, so as to provide basis for putting forward scientific and reasonable countermeasures and retaining blood donors to the greatest extent. 【Methods】 157 679 platelet donors from Tianjin Blood Center from December 26, 2015 to December 25, 2020 were selected and divided into ARAPD group(n=168) and non-ARAPD group (n=157 511). Such characteristics as sex, age, height, weight, blood type, educational background, first-time donation or not, platelet count, hematocrit, phlebotomy time, circulating blood volume and anticoagulant dosage of the two groups were analyzed. Chi-square test was used to identify the high-risk population with poor blood donation response. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to study the influencing factors of blood donors returning. 【Results】 The age, height and weight of ARAPD group were lower than those of the non-ARAPD group, and the proportion of first-time blood donors, the proportion of women and phlebotomy time were higher than those of non-ARAPD group. There was little difference between the two groups in circulating blood volume, anticoagulant dosage, pre- and post-donation platelet count and hematocrit. Logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of ARAPD were age, educational background, first-time donation or not and phlebotomy time, among which age and first-time donation or not were positively correlated, education and phlebotomy time were negatively correlated (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Female, low age, low height and weight, and less blood donation are the basic characteristics of high-risk people with ARAPD. Low age, high education, first-time blood donation and long phlebotomy time are the influencing factors that lead to donor lapsing. Therefore, countermeasures are put forward based on the above results.
