Donor Deferral

Background: Blood donor programme is vital to any transfusion service. This process of blood donation involves voluntary and non remunerated blood donors. The objective of donor screening is to minimize the chances of transmitting infectious agents to recipients. Material and Method: The study was conducted during one year duration from 2017-2018. A total of 700 donors are deferred against 9556 blood donors recruited on the basis of clinical history and brief medical examination in blood bank and voluntary blood donation camps. Donors were deferred temporarily or permanently. Result: Out of 700 deferred donors; 546 were voluntary and 154 were replacement blood donors. Male (601) outnumbered female (99). There were 682 temporary and 18 permanent deferral. Most common age group for deferral was 17-30 yrs (490). Common causes included anemia(142), on medication(108), underweight(83) and high blood pressure(72). Conclusion: Donor selection process is a most important preliminary step in blood banking and should follow stringent medical and regulatory rules. Studying and analysing the profile of blood donors will help to identify sections of the population which could be targeted to increase the pool of voluntary blood donors. Every attempt should be made to decrease the donor deferral keeping in view the safety of both donor and recipients. Keywords: Blood donor, Deferral, Voluntary, Temporary, Permanent.

Donor Deferral

Background:  It is the prime duty of transfusion services to provide safe, adequate and timely need of blood and the blood products. Understanding the reasons for donor deferral can help in planning more efficient recruitment strategies and educate and motivate temporarily deferred donors in order to maintain a safe and adequate supply of blood products. Aims of the Study: To evaluate and analyze the blood donor deferral pattern in a tertiary care hospital blood bank and to review its influence on blood safety. Methodology: This retrospective study was conducted in the blood bank, CHRI from the year January 2015 to December 2018. Data like demographic data, clinical history, physical examination, haematological examination, stored in the blood bank was retrived. The donors will be deferred based on standard WHO guidelines. The collected deferral data was analyzed using SPSS software 2011version 20. Results: During the study period there were 7010 registered blood donors. The deferral rate was 5.19%. Among the donor deferrals, females were more commonly deferred ie 31.66%. The deferral rate among voluntary and replacement donors are 4.71% and 11.62% respectively. The rate of permanent deferral (17.86%) was less compared to temporary deferral (82.14%). Among temporary deferral anaemia is the most common cause (27.75%). Seropositive for Hepatitis B is the most common cause for permenant deferral (52.30%). Conclusion: In our study temporary deferral is higher this necessities the need of education, motivation of these donors for future donation to maintain a healthy and safe donor pool.

Mupirocin Resistance

Apropos to the article by Dr Bali, titled “Mupirocin resistance in clinical isolates of methicillin-sensitive and resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a tertiary care centre of North India” (1), the authors have raised important issue of emerging antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Antimicrobial resistance is an increasingly serious threat to global public health that requires action across all government sectors and society. As per WHO, AMR lurks the effective prevention and management of an ever-increasing spectrum of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, fungi and viruses. Novel resistance mechanisms are emerging and spreading globally, threatening the man’s ability to treat common infectious diseases.
