Objective: To analyze the characteristics and key risk factors of abnormal blood disposal throughout the 2024-2025 blood collection and supply process based on nationwide multi-site monitoring data, develop a comprehensive prevention and control strategy across the entire chain, reduce preventable blood waste, and ensure clinical blood safety. Methods: According to the Guidelines for Haemovigilance (T/CSBT 001-2026), we extracted 74 cases of abnormal blood disposal events reported by the China Blood Transfusion Association′s Blood Safety Monitoring System from January 1 2024, to December 31 2025, and conducted descriptive statistical analysis on the distribution of events, types of deviations, root causes, and classifications of disposal manifestations. Results: A total of 664 adverse events related to blood collection and supply were reported over two years, with 74 cases involving discarded abnormal blood units, accounting for 11.1% of the total. Among these, blood component preparation (40.5%) and blood collection (37.8%) remained traditional high-risk stages. The proportion of blood waste occurring during storage, distribution, and transportation increased from 7.7% in 2024 to 34.3% in 2025. Deviations from standard operating procedures (SOP) by personnel were the primary cause, accounting for 74.3% of cases. Discarded blood units were categorized into four types: compromised closed blood bag systems (40 cases), mainly due to inadequate heat sealing, physical damage, or dropped bags; blood out of the cold chain (12 cases), primarily resulting from blood being left at work sites; imbalanced proportion of preservation solution (10 cases), mostly caused by blood collection volumes exceeding the standard capacity of blood bags; and other causes (12 cases). Conclusion: Human operational errors are the core cause of abnormal blood waste. The collection and preparation stages have long been at high-risk, and the risks in the storage and transportation stages have been increasing year by year. We should focus on standardizing personnel management, improving specialized operation norms such as heat sealing, transportation, and storage, establishing a full-process intelligent cold chain monitoring and multi-node visual verification mechanism, and systematically reducing the occurrence rate of abnormal blood waste through a closed-loop quality intervention system, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of voluntary blood donation resources.

Objective To improve the protective strategy of occupational risks for technicians in blood centers so as to ensure their health and safety.Methods The occupational risk factors were analyzed by the 5W1H method,and the corresponding protective measures were introduced.Then,the protective measures were verified dynamically by the PDCA circulation,and were standardized and further spread.The projects with poor effect were replanned and entered the PDCA recycling.Results The system of the 5W1H method combined with PDCA circulation could identify and control various occupational risks,and effectively prevent the occupational detriments.Condusion Combined application of the 5W1H method with PDCA circulation is an effective way to protect the health and safety of technicians in blood centers and an effective mode to improve the management of occupational risks.

Objective:To investigate the effect of IL-7 on differentiation of thymic T lymphocytes and dendritic cells' differentiation in vitro.Methods:Thymic lobes were apspectically removed from 15-day-old or 16-day-old mouse fetueses and were cultured by the way of fetal thymus organ cultures (FTOC) in vitro.Lobes were cultured in the dishes with or without Interleukin-7(IL-7),then collected the cultured cells respectively.The expression of CD4,CD8,CD11c,B220,Ia,and CD11b was detected by flow cytometry,and the morphology was observed under the ligt microscope.The proliferation of these cells was determined by cell counting.The cultured cells were used as stimulators for allogeneic T cells,whose proliferation were detected later by MTT method.Results:The result of cell counting indicated that the total amount of the thymocytes was decresed obviously after being cultured with IL-7,while the proportion of CD4~+ CD8~+ thymocytes decreased,the proportion of CD4~- CD8~-,and CD4~- CD8~+ thymocytes increased,and no much difference in the amount of CD4~+ CD8~- thymocytes was found.In addition,the amount of B lymphocytes,natural killer cells,and dendritic cells increased in different degree.Conclusion:IL-7 participates in differentiation and development of thymic T lymphocytes and dendritic cells.
