Journal Title: Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion - Year 2023, Vol 36, Issue 8
Abstract
Objective To investigate the re-donation willingness and its influencing factors of street blood donrs, so as to stable the team of blood donors and enhance the efficiency of blood collection. Methods From July 2021 to December 2022, 1 210 blood donors were randomly selected from 5 street blood donation sites affiliated to Nantong Central Blood Station, and their willingness to re-donate blood and influencing factors were surveyed via telephone interviews within 24 hours and 2 to 3 weeks after blood donation. The frequency and type of adverse donation reactions (ADRs) was gathered. Results Among 1 210 street blood donors, 590 were first-time blood donors, accounting for 48.76% (590/1 210), and 620 were repeated blood donors, accounting for 51.24% (620/1 210). The response rate of this survey was 96.03% (1 162/1 210), and the incidence of delayed ADRs was 1.29% (15/1 162) according to telephone interviews after blood donation. Among the 620 repeated blood donors, "health promotion" (61.77%, 383/620) was the most important reason for willingness of redonation(P<0.05), and the top of the list for on-site experience was "blood donation locations" (56.61%, 351/620) (P< 0.05). Conclusion The intention of blood donors, location of blood donation sites, service and publicity of blood donation are the main factors that affect the re-donation of blood donors. It's vital to increase the proportion of blood re-donation, and promote the development of voluntary blood donation by improving blood donation service, policy popularization and incentive measures.
