RESUMO
【Objective】 To explore the characteristics and influencing factors of adverse reactions of apheresis plasma donation in 27 domestic plasma donation stations, and put forward targeted preventive measures. 【Methods】 A total of 6 275 plasma donors with adverse reactions from 2018 to 2020 in 27 plasma donation stations in China were selected as the research objects. The types of adverse reactions, ages, time of plasma donation and other related characteristics were counted and retrospectively analyzed. 【Results】 From January 2018 to December 2020, the incidence of adverse reactions of apheresis plasma donation in 27 plasma collection stations was 1.37‰, including vasovagal reaction/hypovolemia (3 208 cases, 0.700‰), sodium citrate allergy/hypocalcemia (1 205 cases, 0.263‰), hypoglycemia (1 020 cases, 0.223‰), syncope (796 cases, 0.174‰), hematoma (8 cases, 0.002‰), other reactions (36 cases, 0.008‰), all of which were non-severe adverse reactions. There were significant differences in the incidence of different types of adverse reactions (P0.05). 【Conclusion】 The incidence of adverse reactions in plasma donation is low in China. In the process of plasma donation, attention should be paid to first-time and young (18-25 years old) donors. The incidence of adverse reactions in 56-60 years old donors is the lowest, which can provide data support for the age revision of plasma donors in China.

In addition, the CCI (×103, 24 h) and PPR (%) were 15.11±9.86 vs 14.61±12.55 and 54.23±18.70 vs 61.41±19.09 respectively, with no significant difference, indicating a certain degree of therapeutic effect. 【Conclusion】 The quality and clinical therapeutic effect of pooled platelets leukocytes reduced were consistent with that of apheresis platelets leukocytes reduced.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To explore the effect of inspection sheet on improving the quality of apheresis platelet, the satisfaction of blood donors and the cooperation ability of phlebotomists in the process of apheresis platelet collection. 【Methods】 Apheresis platelet donors from May to August 2021 in our center were selected as control group(without inspection sheet) and those from September to December 2021 were included in the observation group (with inspection sheet). The incidence of abnormal collection and the causes during collection process were compared between the two groups.And 100 first-time blood donors in each group were randomly selected for satisfaction survey. The questionnaire was made to investigate the phlebotomists’ recognition on the implementation of inspection sheet. 【Results】 The number of blood donors in the two groups were 6 673 and 6 559, with 111 and 49 abnormal cases, respectively. The total incidence of abnormal cases during blood collection before and after the implementation of inspection sheet was 1.66% and 0.75%, respectively, with the latter significantly lower than the former(P<0.001). The most common causes of abnormal conditions were repetitive puncture, followed by adverse reaction of blood donation, red blood cells contamination in platelet and fatty blood. The satisfaction of first-time blood donors was higher than before the implementation, and the recognition of phlebotomists on the inspection sheet was more than 90%. 【Conclusion】 The implementation of inspection sheet helps to regulate the collection process, strengthen the responsibility and service consciousness of phlebotomists, improve the satisfaction of blood donors, reduce the incidence of adverse events, and improve the quality of platelet products, which is worth popularizing in blood collection and supply institutions.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To study the changes of platelet components(PC), apheresis platelets (AP) and pooled platelet concentrates (PPC) production of 19 provincial blood centers before and during the COVID-19 epidemic. 【Methods】 The data related to the collection of AP and the preparation of PPC from 2016 to 2021 of 19 provincial blood centers was collected. The production of PC, AP and PPC during the four years before the epidemic (i.e. 2016-2019) and during the COVID-19 epidemic (i.e. 2020 and 2021) were calculated respectively, and the change of production was analyzed. 【Results】 The total production of PC in 19 blood centers steadily increased from 2016 to 2019, with a decrease of 4.16% in 2020 and an increase of 15.60% in 2021, exceeding the output before the COVID-19 epidemic. In 2020, the production of PC of 42.11% (8/19) blood centers decreased compared with 2019, while 94.74% (18/19) in 2021 increased compared with 2020. The changes of AP output was basically consistent with the trend of PC. The total production of PPC in 2017 and 2018 both doubled compared to the previous year, while decreased by 67.98% in 2019, increased by 30.38% in 2020 and decreased by 27.08% in 2021. 【Conclusion】 The total production of PC kept increasing steadily between 2016 and 2019, but decreased in 2020 under the COVID-19 epidemic, with some blood centers being significantly affected. In 2021, with the strong support from government and various measures by blood centers, the total production of PC increased.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions to blood donation during platelet collection in female blood donors with low body weight and high platelet count, so as to improve the comfortableness during platelet collection and increase the proportion of repeated blood donors. 【Methods】 The control group and observation group were compared to explore the causes that may cause adverse reactions in the blood collection cycle using blood collection process program software in MCS+, and the incidence of blood donation reaction was compared and observed by increasing the times of oral administrations of calcium gluconate by 10%, increasing the number of collection cycles and reducing the peak plasma volume of the last cycle. 【Results】 After comparing the two groups, it was found that the incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group and the control group was 16.7%(3/18) and 81.2%(26/32), the proportion of repeated donors in the observation group and the control group was 77.7%(14/18) and 31.2%(10/32). 【Conclusion】 Female platelet donors with low body weight and high platelet count should be given more care during the collection process. It is suggested that giving more times of oral administrations of calcium gluconate by 10% and one more collection cycle to reduce the collection peak in each cycle, as well as the supplement of saline, which can effectively reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions to blood donation, thus improving blood donation satisfaction and increasing the proportion of repeated blood donors.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To monitor the positive rates of IgM and IgG antibodies and the changes in S/CO values over time in voluntary blood donors infected with SARS-CoV-2 after recovery, in order to provide theoretical basis and data support for ensuring clinical blood safety. 【Methods】 A total of 54 platelet donors who met the inclusion criteria were selected for this study, and 359 blood samples (plasma) from T1 to T7 (at 7 time points, spanning 14 to 15 weeks) were continuously monitored for SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG antibodies using fully automated chemi-luminescence method. 【Results】 Among 359 blood samples (plasma) from 54 donors, 349 were with valid test results.Eleven donors were tested positive for IgM, with a positive rate of 20.37%, and IgM antibody S/CO value gradually increased during T1-T3, but gradually decreased during T4-T7. Fifty-four donors were tested positive for IgG, with the positive rate of 100%, and the S/CO value of IgG antibody gradually decreased over time. During the period of T1 -T7, there was no significant difference in SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody S/CO value between gender (male/female) or age group (18-39 years old /40-60 years old). 【Conclusion】 The positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody in platelet donors after recovery from SARS-CoV-2 infection was 100% during 2-14 weeks, and the IgG S/CO value gradually decreases over time. The long-term dynamic changes of SARS-CoV-2 serologically specific IgG and IgM antibodies in blood donors are worthy of further study.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate the effect of multiple apheresis platelet donation on platelet indexes and aggregation function in platelet donors, and to analyze the relationship between platelet indexes and their relationship with platelet aggregation rate. 【Methods】 A total of 83 platelet donors were randomly selected from Foshan Central Blood Station from September 2021 to October 2022, and were divided into control group (n= 9, first-time platelet donors or donors with the time interval from the last platelet donation >1 year) and study group (n= 74, repeat platelet donors or donors with the time interval from the last platelet donation ≤ 1 year) according to the times of blood donation. The study group was divided into 4 subgroups: 2-5 times group, 6-10 times group, 11-15 times group and 16 times group. The platelet count(Plt), platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), large platelet ratio (P-LCR), and maximum platelet aggregation rate (MAR) before donation in each group were detected and analyzed. 【Results】 There were no significant differences in Plt, MPV, PDW, P-LCR and MAR between the subgroups and the control group (P>0.05), and there were no significant differences in Plt, MPV, PDW, P-LCR and MAR between each subgroup (P>0.05) .There was a positive correlation between Plt and MAR in blood donors (P<0.05), and the correlation coefficient was 0.445. MPV, PDW and P-LCR were negatively correlated with MAR (P<0.05), and the correlation coefficients were -0.282, -0.233 and -0.217, respectively. Plt was negatively correlated with MPV, PDW and P-LCR (P < 0. 05), and the correlation coefficients were -0.399, -0.307 and -0.339, respectively. MPV, PDW and P-LCR are positively correlated with each other. The correlation coefficient between MPV and PDW was 0.792, that between MPV and P-LCR was 0.863, and tthat between PDW and P-LCR was 0.817. 【Conclusion】 There was no significant effect of multiple platelet donations on Plt, PDW, MPV, P-LCR and MAR in blood donors. Plt has the most significant impact on MAR among platelet indexes of platelet donors.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate the willingness of whole blood donors to donate apheresis platelets and analyze its influencing factors. 【Methods】 A total of 400 whole blood donors from Kunshan Blood Station and Leshan Blood Station from January to May, 2023 were surveyed by random sampling, and their willingness to donate apheresis platelets were analyzed by univariate analysis and binary logistic regression analysis. 【Results】 A total of 386 valid questionnaires were collected, with a recovery rate of 96.5%. Among the 386 whole blood donors, 177 were willing to donate apheresis platelets, accounting for 45.9%. Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, education level, blood donation times, average blood donation volume, adverse reactions to blood donation, understanding of platelets, and family members' attitude towards blood donation were the main factors affecting the willingness of whole blood donors to donate platelets, and binary logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, blood donation times, average blood donation volume, understanding of platelets and family members' attitude towards blood donation were the main factors. 【Conclusion】 Targeted recruitment of whole blood donors should be conducted to recruit more apheresis platelet donors, so as to meet clinical demand of apheresis platelets.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To study the effects of different storage temperature and different storage time on the activity of key growth factors in platelet-rich plasma(PRP), and to provide a theoretical basis for maximize the role of PRP in clinical treatment. 【Methods】 PRP was collected by blood cell isolation and apheresis, stored at 22℃ and -80℃, respectively. VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF were detected by ELISA. The content of growth factors in PRP was detected when stored at 22℃for 1, 3 and 5 days, and the growth factors content of PRP stored at 22℃ for 3 days was detected after thrombin activation for 0.5, 1 and 1.5 hours. The content of growth factor in frozen PRP (stored at -80℃ for 30 days after initial 3-days storage at 22℃ ) and fresh PRP (stored at 22℃ for 3 days) was compared. The growth factor content in PRP frozen at - 80℃ for 30, 60 and 180 days, and the growth factor content in PRP frozen at -80℃ for 180 days after repeated freeze-thaw for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 times were detected. 【Results】 The growth factor content of apheresis PRP was significantly higher than that of platelet-poor plasma. No statistical difference was noticed in VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF content in PRP at 1, 3 and 5 days stored at 22℃; no statistical difference was noticed in VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF content in PRP stored at 22℃ for 3 days after thrombin activation for 0.5, 1 and 1.5 hours. There was no statistically significant difference in growth factor content between PRP stored at 22℃ for 3 days versus frozen at -80℃ for 30 days after initial 3-days storage at 22℃. No statistical difference was found in VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF contents in frozen PRP repeatedly frozen and thawed for 1 to 10 times. 【Conclusion】 Apheresis PRP can release a large amount of growth factors after activation. Fresh PRP stored at 22℃ for 5 days or frozen at -80℃ for 180 days has no impact on the content of growth factors, and frozen PRP at -80℃ can achieve long-term, effective and safe preservation, which is conducive to multiple use of PRP in treatment.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate whether the blood donors' coagulation status may lead to apheresis platelet aggregation in vitro. 【Methods】 Thirty blood donors with aggregation in apheresis platelets collected by AMICUS blood cell separator no less than 3 times previously and occurred when the last time of apheresis donation were observed in aggregated group (referred to as the experimental group); Thirty donors without aggregation in apheresis platelets collected by AMICUS blood cell separator no less than 3 times were observed in the control group simultaneously. The basic platelet parameters in the two groups, including Plt, MPV, PDW, Pet, P-LCR were detected by automatic blood cell analyzer (BC-3000Plus), and thromboelastogram indexes including reaction time(R), kinetics time(K), kinetics of clot development(α), maximum amplitude (MA) and coagulation index(CI) were tested by Thrombosis elastography (TEG) before collection. With SPSS24.0 software, t test was used to compare the differences between the two groups. 【Results】 The CI value in experimental group was significantly different from that of the control group (0.48± 1.00 vs -0.99 ±1.96, P0.05 ) . 【Conclusion】 The coagulation status of blood donors may be an independent risk factor for the in vitro aggregation of apheresis platelets.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To explore the application and effectiveness of holistic nursing based on SWOT in platelet collection at blood stations. 【Methods】 SWOT analysis was used to analyze the causes of adverse reactions to blood donation in platelet donors, put forward countermeasures and take holistic nursing measures. Routine nursing was adopted from January to June 2021, and holistic nursing based on SWOT analysis was adopted from July to December 2021. The adverse reactions and the nursing quality before and after the implementation of holistic nursing in the two groups were compared, and the satisfaction of blood donors to the nurses was analyzed. 【Results】 After the implementation of holistic nursing based on SWOT analysis, the incidence of adverse reactions in blood donation was 2%(2/100) in the observation group, significantly lower than 11%(11/100) in the control group(P<0.05). Nursing satisfaction score of the observation group was (93.10±4.97 points), significantly higher than that of the control group (78.12±5.36 points)(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The implementation of holistic nursing based on SWOT analysis can significantly reduce the incidence of adverse reactions in platelet donors and improve the satisfaction of blood donors with the nursing work, thus significantly improving the quality of nursing in the department.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To observe the effect of platelet transfusion in inpatients with haematological diseases, analyze the possible causes of platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR), in order to further improve the efficacy of platelet transfusion. 【Methods】 A total of 310 patients with blood disease in our hospital from August 2020 to November 2021 who received platelet transfusion were retrospectively analyzed. Possible influencing factors of platelet transfusion, including gender, age, platelet preservation time, number of platelet transfusions, complication and red blood cell product transfusion were analyzed. 【Results】 Patients were divided into effective group and refractory group according to percentage platelet recovery (PPR) and corrected count increment (CCI). PTR was defined as PPR <20% or CCI <5 000 after two consecutive transfusions in 24 h or clinical bleeding symptoms or tendency not significantly controlled. Statistical differences were noticed between the two groups in terms of gender, pretransfusion white blood cell count, anemia, and whether antibiotics were used (P<0.05). The type of disease, gender, anemia and number of comorbidities were associated with PTR. The incidence of PTR was the highest in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, and the incidence of PTR was higher in men than in women. Transfusion units of suspended red blood cells and the number of comorbidities were negatively correlated with the transfusion efficacy (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Possible influencing factors of platelet transfusion included the level of white blood cells before transfusion, use of antibiotics, anemia and transfusion of red blood cells, number of comorbidities, and type of disease, while no significant differences were found in age, hemolysis, hypersplenism, platelet preservation time, and number of platelet transfusions on transfusion efficacy.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate the effectiveness of current indicators in initial screening and retest before donation and access the optimal testing strategies. 【Methods】 Data of initial screening (rate method for ALT, colloidal gold method for HBsAg) and retest (rate method for ALT, ELISA for HBsAg) of 18 510 platelet donors in our center from January 2019 to December 2021 were collected, and the results were retrospectively analyzed and compared in terms of different years and number of donations. 【Results】 From 2019 to 2021, data of initial screening and retest of platelet donors were as follows: 1) the deferral rate of ALT and HBsAg was 12.98% (2 403/18 510) vs 0.26%(40/15 412); 2) the deferral rate of ALT was 13.19% (712/5 398) vs 0.20%(9/4 410)in 2019, 13.33% (873/6 549) vs 0.06%(3/5 387)in 2020 and 11.05% (725/6 563) vs 0.07%(4/5 615)in 2021; for initial screening, significant difference was noticed in ALT reactivity in 2021 as in comparison to other two years(P<0.05); 3) the reactive rate of HBsAg was 0.43% (23/5 398) vs 0.18%(8/4 410)in 2019, 0.66% (43/6 549) vs 0.20%(11/5 387)in 2020 and 0.41% (27/6 563) vs 0.09%(5/5, 615) in 2021. For initial screening, HBsAg deferral in 2021 was significantly different from 2019, while similar with 2020. 4) Among ALT deferral samples in the retest, 68.75% (11/16) were ALT≥45 U/L. Among HBsAg reactive samples, 91.67% (22/24) were reactive by single reagent. 【Conclusion】 Setting the threshold value of ALT for platelet donors in initial screening as less than 45 U/L can effectively reduce the reactive rate in the retest. HBsAg screening only for first-time platelet donors can reduce the detection cost. Adding pre-donation detection indicators according to local prevalence of transfusion transmitted diseases is conductive to reduce the discarding rate of platelets.

Introduction: Streptococcus gallolyticus belongs to theStreptococcus bovis complex, and it is a common bacterium colonizing the gastrointestinal tract. Its presence in the blood may suggest an underlying pathology such as a colonic neoplasm. We report herein a case of S. bovis bacteremia in an apheresis platelet donor, review similar cases in the literature, and suggest a flowchart for the management of similar cases in other blood donation centers. Case Presentation: A 61-year-old subject presented to a Hemotherapy Service to make an apheresis platelet donation. On quality control testing, S. gallolyticus was identified in hemoculture, and the donor was called back for follow-up. At first, a new hemoculture was requested, and the patient was referred to the outpatient department of infectious diseases to further investigate pathologies associated with S. gallolyticus. A subsequent colonoscopy investigation evidenced a polypoid structure in the ascending colon. Pathology reported the resected specimen as a low-grade tubular adenoma. Conclusion: Isolation of S. bovis in blood products requires further investigation and should be managed with precision by Hemotherapy Services. A standard protocol for the management of asymptomatic patients with S. bovis positive hemoculture, with the requests of a new blood culture, a colonoscopy, and an echocardiogram is crucial, as it may ensure early diagnosis and reduce morbidity and mortality.
