AABB survey on directed blood donation practices
Abstract Background Standardized guidance regarding the processes for collecting directed blood donations (DBD) is lacking, leading to variable practices. This study assessed laboratory, clinical, and charging practices for DBD collection in the United States and Canada. Study Design and Methods An electronic survey was distributed to United States and
