【Objective】 To explore the psychological experience of blood donors with blood donation-related vasovagal reaction (DRVR), so as to provide basis for improving the quality of blood donation services. 【Methods】 The real experience of 9 DRVR blood donors was analyzed using the phenomenological research method in qualitative research. 【Results】 The occurrence of DRVR caused distinct psychological conflict among blood donor. Blood donors lacked knowledge about blood donation and expected professional evaluation and continuous support. The occurrence of DRVR was an important reason for blood donor lapsing. 【Conclusion】 By resolving the distinct psychological conflicts of DRVR blood donors, establishing DRVR early warning evaluation and feedback system, as well as strengthening the construction of support system, blood collection and supply institutions can create a good humanistic and social environment for sustainable development of voluntary blood donation.
