Abstract:
【Objective】 To study the recruitment of apheresis platelet donors from relatives and friends of hospital patients and explore the viability of this recruitment mode as the mutual donation was canceled. 【Methods】 The data of 1 025 successfully recruited apheresis platelet donors were selected, and the demographic characteristics in terms of blood donation times, age, gender and qualified blood donation were analyzed by SPSS.20 software. 【Results】 In the recruitment from relatives and friends of hospital patients, the donation rate of male donors(75.29%, 588/781) was higher than that of female donors(68.44%, 167/244), and higher in repeated donors (82.21%, 268/326)than that in first time donors (69.67%, 487/699), and it didn′t differ by age. The top three causes of donor deferral were WBC (4.17%, 43/1 025), ALT(3.84%, 39/1 025) and lipemic blood (3.04%, 31/1 025). The re-donation rate reached 7.8%(59/755). 【Conclusion】 Recruiting apheresis platelet donors from the relatives and friends of hospital patients, as a supplement to voluntary blood donation recruitment, is suitable for the recruitment of first time platelet donors.
