Vox Sang 2024; 119:110-120. [PMID: 37814964 DOI: 10.1111/vox.13544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES As part of a large-scale project to safely increase plasma collection in Europe, the current scoping review identifies the existing evidence (gaps) on adverse events (AEs) and other health effects in plasmapheresis donors, as well as factors that may be associated with such events/effects. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched six databases and three registries. Study characteristics (publication type, language, study design, population, outcomes, associated factors, time of assessment, duration of follow-up, number and frequency of donations, convalescent plasma [y/n], setting and location) were synthesized narratively and in an interactive evidence gap map (EGM). RESULTS Ninety-four research articles and five registrations were identified. Around 90% were observational studies (57 controlled and 33 uncontrolled), and most of them were performed in Europe (55%) or the United States (20%). Factors studied in association with donor health included donor characteristics (e.g., sex, age) (n = 27), cumulative number of donations (n = 21), donation frequency (n = 11), plasma collection device or programme (n = 11), donor status (first time vs. repeat) (n = 10), donation volume per session (n = 8), time in donation programme (n = 3), preventive measures (n = 2) or other (n = 9). CONCLUSION The current scoping review provides an accessible tool for researchers and policymakers to identify the available evidence (gaps) concerning plasmapheresis donation safety. Controlled prospective studies with long-term donor follow-up are scarce. Furthermore, additional experimental studies comparing the health effects of different donation frequencies are required to inform a safe upper limit for donation frequency.

Abstract
Many patients worldwide receive platelet components (PCs) through the transfusion of diverse types of blood components. PC transfusions are essential for the treatment of central thrombocytopenia of diverse causes, and such treatment is beneficial in patients at risk of severe bleeding. PC transfusions account for almost 10% of all the blood components supplied by blood services, but they are associated with about 3.25 times as many severe reactions (attributable to transfusion) than red blood cell transfusions after stringent in-process leukoreduction to less than 106 residual cells per blood component. PCs are not homogeneous, due to the considerable differences between donors. Furthermore, the modes of PC collection and preparation, the safety precautions taken to limit either the most common (allergic-type reactions and febrile non-hemolytic reactions) or the most severe (bacterial contamination, pulmonary lesions) adverse reactions, and storage and conservation methods can all result in so-called PC "storage lesions". Some storage lesions affect PC quality, with implications for patient outcome. Good transfusion practices should result in higher levels of platelet recovery and efficacy, and lower complication rates. These practices include a matching of tissue ABH antigens whenever possible, and of platelet HLA (and, to a lesser extent, HPA) antigens in immunization situations. This review provides an overview of all the available information relating to platelet transfusion, from donor and donation to bedside transfusion, and considers the impact of the measures applied to increase transfusion efficacy while improving safety and preventing transfusion inefficacy and refractoriness. It also considers alternatives to platelet component (PC) transfusion.

Abstract
Background and objectives The adverse effects of plasma donation on the body has lowered the odds of donation. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of abnormal serum calcium and total serum protein related to plasma donation, identify the influencing factors, and come up with suggestions to make plasma donation safer. Methods Donors from 10 plasmapheresis centers in five provinces of China participated in this study. Serum samples were collected before donation. Serum calcium was measured by arsenazo III colorimetry, and the biuret method was used for total serum protein assay. An automatic biochemical analyzer was used to conduct serum calcium and total serum protein tests. Results The mean serum calcium was 2.3 ± 0.15 mmol/L and total serum protein was 67.75 ± 6.02 g/L. The proportions of plasma donors whose serum calcium and total serum protein were lower than normal were 20.55% (815/3,966) and 27.99% (1,111/3,969), respectively. There were significant differences in mean serum calcium and total serum protein of plasma donors with different plasma donation frequencies, gender, age, regions, and body mass index (BMI), (all p < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that donation frequencies, age, BMI and regions were significantly associated with a higher risk of low serum calcium level, and donation frequencies, gender, age and regions were significant determinants factors of odds of abnormal total serum protein. Conclusions Donation frequencies, gender, age, regions, and BMI showed different effects on serum calcium and total serum protein. More attention should be paid to the age, donation frequency and region of plasma donors to reduce the probability of low serum calcium and low total serum protein.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review examines recent research on the prevalence and importance of iron deficiency in blood donors, and on efforts to mitigate it. RECENT FINDINGS Premenopausal females, teenagers, and high-frequency donors are at the highest risk for donation-induced iron deficiency, in both high-resource and low-resource settings. The physiology relating iron stores to hemoglobin levels and low hemoglobin deferral is well elucidated in blood donor populations, yet the clinical effects attributable to iron loss in the absence of anemia are challenging to identify. Expanded adoption of ferritin testing is improving donor management but may cause decreases in the blood supply from temporary donor loss. The potential for personalized donor management is emerging with development of computational models that predict individual interdonation intervals that aim to optimize blood collected from each donor while minimizing low hemoglobin deferrals. SUMMARY Measures to reduce iron deficiency are available that can be deployed on a standardized or, increasingly, personalized basis. Blood centers, regulators, and donors should continue to evaluate different tactics for addressing this problem, to obtain a balanced approach that is optimal for maintaining adequate collections while safeguarding donor health.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:841253. [PMID: 35647071 PMCID: PMC9130717 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.841253] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose The Shaanxi Blood Donor Cohort was set up to investigate the impact of blood donation on the health of donors compared with non-blood donors. The specific aims of the study include (1) identifying the geographical and temporal trends of incidence for diseases in both blood donors and non-blood donors; (2) assessing the impact of environmental exposures, lifestyle, body mass index (BMI) and blood type on disease burdens, stratified between blood donors and non-blood donors; and (3) among blood donors, investigating if regular blood donation has a positive impact on donors’ health profiles, based on a cohort with a mixed retrospective and prospective study design. Participants A total of 3.4 million adults, with an equal number and identical demographic characteristics (year of birth, sex and location of residence) of blood donors and non-blood donors, were enrolled on 2012. The one-to-one matching was conducted through a repeated random selection of individuals without any history of blood donation from the Shaanxi Electronic Health Records. The cohort has been so far followed up to the end of 2018, summing to nearly 24 million years of follow-up. The cohort will be followed up prospectively every 3 years until 2030. Findings to Date Of the 1.7 million blood donors, 418,312 (24.5%) and 332,569 (19.5%) individuals were outpatients and inpatients, accounting for 1,640,483(96.2%) outpatient and 496,061 (29.1%) inpatient visits. Of the same number of non-blood donors, 407,798 (23.9%) and 346,097 (20.3%) individuals were hospital outpatients and inpatients, accounting for 1,655,725 (97.1%) outpatient and 562,337 (33.0%) inpatient visits. The number of outpatient and inpatient visits by non-blood donors was 0.9 and 3.9% higher than those of the blood donors (p < 0.01). Blood donors demonstrate significantly fewer inpatients visits than non-blood donors for major chronic disease categories (p < 0.01). Future Plans We are currently exploring the long term benefits of blood donation on major chronic disease categories and multimorbidities in this large population cohort. The study results are adjusted by the “healthy donor effect.” This cohort study will continue until 2030.

Self-ignored onsite adverse donor reaction among whole blood donors: A single center experience from India. Transfus Clin Biol 2022; 29:124-128. [PMID: 35031508 DOI: 10.1016/j.tracli.2022.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2021] [Revised: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Adverse donor reactions (ADR) may often go unreported due to donor related or blood center related factors. Possible donor related factors are self-ignorance of the adverse reaction, inertia to notify blood centre and non-compliance to follow-up. A better understanding of the self-ignored adverse donor reaction (SIADR) helps in early detection, avoidance of complications, adoption of mitigation strategies, and retention of donors. In the current study, we aim to identify the incidence and reasons for onsite SIADR among whole blood donors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospective single-center observational study where 501 participants who completed whole blood donation were recruited. They were interviewed twice by an experienced investigator to identify any onsite SIADR occurred. First interview was conducted just before leaving the premise and second two days after donation using a peer reviewed and validated questionnaire. Cross-tabulation and Chi-square test were used for bivariate analysis. RESULTS Twelve participants out of 501 (2.39%) were found to have onsite SIADR which was twice the frequency of reported onsite ADR (1.20%) during the study period in our center. A majority (75%) of them experienced grade I vaso-vagal reactions (VVR). Around 58.3% of the SIADR donors ignored the reaction as they perceived it as mild, while 25% perceived the symptoms but failed to interpret them as a reaction. CONCLUSION In our center, incidence of onsite SIADR was double the incidence of ADR and majority were VVR grade I. Commonest reason for SIADR was interpretation of reaction as mild. Blood center team shall be proactive and vigilant to identify and report SIADR.
