Return of autologous blood donors as homologous blood donors
Transfusion, 1991Autologous blood donors (ABDs) have been reported to have favorable attitudes toward returning as homologous blood donors (HBDs), but the frequency of return has not been well documented. ABDs eligible by history to be HBDs were followed at one blood center: 255 donating for elective surgery and 234 donating during pregnancy were followed for an ...

Sera of 1,000 blood donors were tested for various combinations of salivary and pancreatic amylase isoenzymes and the frequency of their occurrence was determined in the series mentioned. Five combinations of isoamylases were found. A combination of 1 salivary and 1 pancreatic amylase was found most frequently (89.5%), the frequency of the other four ...

THE present emergency has provided an unusually abundant opportunity for the study of syncope, or fainting, in blood donors. Although not in itself serious, fainting results in loss of time to the donor, it is detrimental to the efficiency of the donor center, and, as pointed out by Taylor,1 an occasional donor has fallen and suffered injury.

Journal of Patient Safety, 2009
Blood donor questionnaire is an integral component of blood safety, designed to identify and disqualify donors who do not fit certain criteria. One of the criteria is the time interval between 2 consecutive donations because repeated blood donors are exposed to adverse effects of frequent donations.

The quality of blood donated or purchased may be not only inferior from a recipient or user point of view, but donation may also be injurious to the health of the donor. A study of 1215 paid donors suggests that the current screening guidelines for all donors may not be adequate.

The Motivations of Blood Donors*
Transfusion, 1965In an effort to determine a key to recruiting the voluntary donor and to ascertain the conditions which dispose towards or inhibit the donation of blood, a study was initiated by the Irwin Memorial Blood Bank of the San Francisco Medical Society, a nonprofit community blood bank supplying blood needs of patients in 58 hospitals in an area encompassing ...

“Just” blood donors? A study on the multi-affiliations of blood donors
Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2017The present work proposes to explore a phenomenon well known in the world of blood donation, but little explored by literature: multi-affiliations. By that term, in this paper we mean blood donors' engagement in multiple associations of various natures (donation, recreation, sports, etc.) simultaneously.

To the Editor.— The editorial by Frank Iber, MD (1981;245:849), entitled "Easier Decisions in Viral Hepatitis for the Practitioner" gives an excellent overview to a frequent, yet often confusing clinical situation. However, his statement that "transfused blood is specifically tested for HB [hepatitis B(antigen)], but no test exists for NANB [non-A ...

SIR, — Your report of the setting up of a canine blood bank by Vets Now ( VR , April 28, 2007, vol 160, p 563) informs us that blood is collected from ‘volunteer dogs’. Is this not an altruistic anthropomorphism?

The Blood Donor Identity Survey: a multidimensional measure of blood donor motivations
Transfusion, 2014BackgroundEvidence indicates that donor identity is an important predictor of donation behavior; however, prior studies have relied on diverse, unidimensional measures with limited psychometric support. The goals of this study were to examine the application of self‐determination theory to blood donor motivations and to develop and validate a related ...
