Objective: To analyze characteristics of iron-deficient blood donors, implement targeted interventions, and evaluate their effectiveness, thereby providing a reference for formulating blood donor recruitment and care strategies. Methods: Based on serum ferritin (SF) test results, the apheresis platelet donors were divided into the low SF group (n=90; 45 males and 45 females) and the normal SF group (n=651; 510 males and 141 females). The results of related indicators of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Interventions for the low SF group included extending the blood donation interval to at least 45 days (group A) and oral iron supplementation combined with the extended donation interval implemented in group A (group B). Pre-intervention and post-intervention SF results were compared. Results: For both male and female donors, serum iron levels were significantly lower in the low SF group than those of the normal SF group, while the levels of transferrin, unsaturated iron binding capacity (UIBC) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) were higher in the low SF group compared to the normal SF group. Some indicators related to red blood cells showed changes, with more evident alterations in females than in males. Twenty-eight donors in group A and 39 donors in group B completed the study after intervention. SF value in group A was (18.32±8.09) μg/L at baseline and (26.21±17.30) μg/L after intervention. Similarly, SF value in group B was (15.87±7.69) μg/L at baseline and (26.24±15.55) μg/L after intervention. In both groups, SF values after intervention were significantly higher than baseline values. However, the magnitude of change did not significantly differ between groups A and B. Conclusion: Other related indicators in blood donors with low ferritin have also experienced some changes, suggesting that some blood donors may have entered the stage of iron-deficient erythropoiesis. Extending blood donation interval facilitates the recovery of iron storage in low-ferritin apheresis platelet donors. Blood stations should develop care strategies for apheresis platelet donors, including, at a minimum, the prolonged blood donation interval for donors with low ferritin.

Objective To investigate the impact of different infusion media on the flow rate of infusion pumps.Methods Ten infusion pumps were randomly selected and tested for infusion rates using deionized water,saline solution,glucose solution,and parenteral nutrition solution.The infusion flow rate was set at 30 mL/h,and the testing methodology conformed to the standards for the calibration and quality control of syringe pumps and infusion pumps.Results For infusion set A,the infusion rate was unaffected by the infusion media,remaining within the acceptable quality control standards.For infusion set B,when infused with deionized water,saline solution,and glucose solution,the infusion errors were within the quality control standards.However,when using parenteral nutrition solution as the infusion medium,the infusion error exceeded the acceptable quality control standards.Conclusion Both the infusion set and the infusion medium can affect the flow rate of infusion pumps.It is crucial to calibrate the flow rate according to the specific infusion medium to reduce medical risks associated with infusion pumps during clinical use.

Objective:To explore the differences in the clinical application of different brands of infrared ear thermometers in pediatric patients,and to guide the rational use of infrared ear thermometers.Methods:A total of 164 inpatients and outpatients who received treatment in the Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from May 2023 to July 2023 were randomly selected,and three different brands of ear thermometers were used to measure the ear temperature of the children in the same measurement method.The differences in temperature and time measured by different brands of ear thermometers in children of different ages were compared.Results:The temperature and time measurements of the three ear thermometers were compared,the difference was statistically significant(F=5.007,264.988,P<0.05).The temperature of children aged≤3 months was measured by the three ear thermometers,and the difference was statistically significant(F=3.868,P<0.05).there was no difference in children aged over 3 months.Conclusion:For children of different ages,medical institutions can make choices based on the comprehensive consideration of the use cost,the speed of measurement time and other factors.For children aged over 3 months,choose product B with lower cost and faster measurement time,for children aged 0-3 months,it is recommended to choose product A with more accurate temperature measurement values.
