【Objective】 To retrospectively investigate the clinical transfusion status in Tibet Autonomous Region People′s Hospital, in order to provide data basis for further improvement of the rational and scientific blood use in our hospital. 【Methods】 Medical records of transfusion recipients in our hospital from 2014 to 2018 were investigated via HIS system, and such indicators as total clinical blood use, usage of whole blood and blood components, blood transfusion per capita, usage of blood components with different types. and the usage of red blood cells and plasma in each clinical department were retrospectively analyzed. 【Results】 The total clinical blood usage of our hospital increased from 3 930.5 U in 2014 to 4 949 U in 2018, with an annual growth rate of 5.93%. The average blood use per capita in 2014 and 2018 was 0.205 U vs 0.218 U, and incidence of blood component transfusion was 47.18% vs 99.02% The proportion of blood component (red blood cell and plasma) usage was 36.0%, 35.9%, 20.7% and 7.4% for blood type O, A, B and AB, respectively. The usage of total blood, red blood cell and plasma in internal and surgical departments were 13 883.8 U vs 7 080.8 U, 4 963.3 U vs 3 647.3 U and 6 055 U vs 1 170 U, respectively. 【Conclusion】 The total clinical blood usage and the proportion of blood component transfusion in our hospital is increasing year by year. Therefore, rational and scientific blood use should be further improved.

【Objective】 To study the changes in erythrocyte osmotic fragility(EOF) in patients with hypercythemia, polycythemia and anemia under a high altitude environment. 【Methods】 A total of 174 outpatients, inpatients and people undergoing physical examination in Tibet Autonomous Region People′s Hospital in October 2020 were enrolled and divided into four groups according to hemoglobin levels: the polycythemia group(n=42), the physiologic increase group(n=48), the anemia group(n=29) and the healthy control group(n=55). They were compared with 67 anemia patients and 67 healthy people in the laboratory of Peking Union Medical College Hospital in the same period as the plain control group. The classic EOF test method was used to compare the results of each group′s EOF. The concentrations of NaCl solution for starting hemolysis (STH) and NaCl solution for complete hemolysis (CTH) were included, and the data were statistically analyzed by SPSS software. 【Results】 There was a significant difference in CTH between Zang and Han healthy people (P<0.05). STH in high altitude polycythemia group(0.52) was higher than that in high altitude healthy control group(0.48) (P<0.001). Compared with plain, the median CTH of plateau anemia group(0.36) and plateau health control group(0.36) was significantly higher than that of plain anemia group(0.28) and plain control group(0.28) (P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that plateau region, female polycythemia and anemia were risk factors for STH elevation. 【Conclusion】 This study finds that the EOF increases in the plateau population and patients with polycythemia, which provides reference for studying red blood cell disorders and blood transfusion strategy in the plateau region.
