RESUMO
The knowledge of blood types frequency in hospital patients helps to plan and perform transfusion therapy at blood donor centers. The distribution of patients' blood by ABO groups and RhD allows to more efficiently organize and use donor blood banks. The risk of a disease is related to genome composition and is inherited with an ABO blood type. Every person should know his (her) ABO blood type and RhD to enable early identification of the first symptoms of an illness. Materials and methods. This work is based on the study of 4831 blood samples from patients treated at the Center of Cardiovascular Surgery in 2013 (2885 (59,7%) men of the mean age 55 years and 1946 (40,3 %) women of the mean age 57 years). Results. Type A blood occurred most frequently (1787 or 37,0% samples) followed by group O (1625 or 33,6% samples). Samples of group B made up 1025 of the total (21,2%), AB blood group was found in 394 samples (8,2%). Conclusion. The blood types distribution of the ABO system in the patients treated at the Center of Cardiovascular Surgery was characterized by the following pattern: A > O > B > AB. Group A was identified in 37,0% of the patients. Its frequency is similar to that in the population of the western part of Russia and Moscow but different from that in the people living in nearby regions. The frequency of RhD system antigens is comparable in all regions of Russia. CcDEe, ccDEe, CcDee, CCDee are considered to be the most widespread phenotypes. The residents of the Krasnoyarsk region and some nearby regions having blood type A apply to the Center of Cardiovascular Surgery with cardiovascular disorders more frequently than those with others ABO blood types.
