Objective: This study was aimed to identify the distribution patterns of ABO and Rh-D blood group among the blood donor attending at transfusion medicine department DMCHin order to promote social awareness and safe blood transfusion among the population.Method: It was a cross sectional study conducted in the Department of Transfusion Medicine, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, from January to December 2014. After proper ethical consideration, a total of 39,512 blood donors were included in this study. They were selected irrespective of age and sex by systematic random sampling. ABO and Rh-D blood groups were determined by the antigen antibody agglutination test in our blood bank by standard tile techniques.Results: Among 39,512 blood donors male blood donors were 31,602(79.98%), female blood donors were 7,910(20.01%).14,817(37.5%) blood donor were identified as having blood group B, while 12,565 (31.8%) were blood group O, 8614( 21.80%) and3516( 8.9% )were blood group A and AB respectively. Rh-D positive were 38,247(96.79%) and Rh-D negative were 1,265(3.2%).J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 24, No.1, April, 2015, Page 53-56

Introduction: Without blood there may be no blood transfusion. Without donors there may not any blood. During vasovagal reaction there is chance of accidental fall and injury to blood donor. So improving the safety of the blood donation experience will reduce the donor injuries and increase the blood donation, donation frequency and donor satisfaction. Objective: This study was done to find out the incidence of blood donor reaction- vasovagal reactions among the blood donors attending at transfusion medicine department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital and to improve the donor’s safety. Methodology: This study was done at Transfusion Medicine Department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital in the period between January 2010 to December 2010. Total 21815 donors of 18 to 55 years of both sexes were selected after reviewing the questionnaire, physical and medical examination and written consent. Donors were observed for 30 minutes after donation. The needle site was covered with a bandage and the donor was directed to keep the bandage on for several hours. Result: In this study, out of 21815 donors 163(8.7%) developed reaction. In163 reactions, 72(44.18%) were in male and 91 (55.82%) were in female donors. Within 20179 male donors, adverse reactions occurred in 72 (0.35%) and within 1636 female donors, adverse reactions occurred in 91 (5.56%) The symptoms were agitation 23 (14.12%), pallor 31 (19.02%), sweating 29 (17.79%), nausea 21 (12.88%), vomiting 38 (23.21%), cold feeling 12(7.36%), loss of consciousness 9(5.52%),i.e. severe reactions were 9(5.53%) and mild to moderate reactions were154 (94.47%). Among the reactions 127 (0.89%) occurred in new donors, 32 (0.49%) occurred in occasional donors and 4 (0.37%) in periodic donors. Conclusion: Vasovagal reactions are more common in female and new donors. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjmed.v22i2.13589 Bangladesh J Medicine 2011; 22: 47-50

Background: The platelet transfusions help in prevention of bleeding related complications and thus prevents morbidity and mortality in thrombocytopenic patients. Platelet transfusion plays an important role in the treatment of haematological, oncological, surgical, and transplant patients. Platelets are transfused by two methods i) by fractionation of whole blood and ii) by platelet apheresis. Over the last decade there has been a trend towards the use of SDPs rather than pooled random donor platelets in thrombocytopenic patients. Optimization of platelet yield is an emerging issue to identify factors which may help in selecting donors to obtain higher platelet yields in shorter time and consequently better clinical outcome. Objective: The quality of single donor platelets (SDP) in terms of yield influences the platelet recovery in the recipient. The aim was to identify the SDP donor factors that influence platelet yield. Methods: The study was undertaken at transfusion medicine department, DMCH from 1st January 2017 to 31st December 2017. The study included 350 plateletpheresis procedures. All procedures were performed according to manufacturer’s manual and standard operating procedure. Results: During the period of study, 350 platelet pheresis donors were studied. All of the donors were male. Platelet yield showed high statistical significance with pre donation platelet count and its indices. (p=0.000). Statistical significant negative correlation was seen between pre donation Hb concentration and the platelet yield. (p =0.005). No statistical significance was seen height (p=0.933), weight (p=0.760) of donor on platelet yield. Conclusion: Platelet recovery in the patient is influenced by the transfused dose of platelets, which in turn is dependent on the quality of the platelet product in terms of yield. Various donor factors such as pre donation platelet count and haemoglobin concentration may affect platelet yield. J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 28, No.2, October, 2019, Page 179-183

This study was carried out among the blood donors attending the Blood TransfusionDepartment of Khulna Medical College Hospital. Both ABO and Rhesus (Rh) blood grouping wasdone to see the pattern of ABO and Rh blood group among them. Maximum blood donors werebetween age group 18-37 years. Among the donors maximum were male 12105 (94.73%). Male:female ratio was 18:1. Among them B+ve was found 4286 (33.54%), B-ve was 127 (5.0%), O+vewas 4091 (32.02%), O-ve was 131 (1.03%), A+ve was 3014 (23.59%), A-ve was 74 (0.58%), AB+vewas 1019 (7.98%), AB-ve was 37 (0.29%). Overall total Rh positive blood group were 12410(97.11%) and total negative blood group were 369 (2.89%).doi: 10.3329/taj.v15i2.3910TAJ December 2002; Vol.15(2): 68-70

There are no reports in the transfusion medicine literature that describe adverse donor reactions after whole-blood donation based on solicited information. A descriptive study was done in the Transfusion Medicine Department, Dhaka Medical College Hospital during the period of July 2000 to December 2001. The present study solicited adverse donor reaction and donor reaction information from 14,413 randomly selected whole-blood donors approximately immediately or within 30 minutes after the whole-blood donation. From this study, percentage of adverse donor reaction was 4.98%. The number of prior donations was inversely proportional to the risk of reaction; It was found that, first-time donors have a higher frequency of reactions (5.04%) than do repeat donors (4.96%).The value for first-time or repeated donor were significant (p<0.0001).Female donors are more vulnerable to adverse donor reaction than male donors (5.97%) (4.94%) (p<0.001). In this study it was also found that, fainting or vasovagal attack was more common in female donors (0.77 %) than male donors (0.35 %). It was also found incidence were more in first time donor (1.08%) than repeated donor (0.0%) in case of female donor. Adverse donor reaction after donation and complaints may be more common than previously thought. The post donation follow-up and interview is a good tool for defining the blood donor's experience. It can also be used to evaluate and potentially improve blood donor safety and comfort.   doi: 10.3329/taj.v20i1.3088 TAJ 2007; 20(1): 39-47

Context: The possibility of hepatitis transmission through blood and blood products is very high and pretransfusion screening is mandatory by law in our country. The present study was carried out to find out the prevalence of Hepatitis B virus positive (HBsAg positive) among the blood donors attended the Department of Transfusion Medicine, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, in 2012. Method: This cross sectional study was carried out in the Department of Transfusion Medicine, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, between January and December 2012. Total blood donors were 27,560. Blood donors of 18-60 years of both sexes were included in this study. Results: Among 27,560 blood donors, relative blood donors were 21,081 (76.49%) and voluntary blood donors were 6,479 (23.50%). Among total blood donors male and female were 23,776 (86.26%) and 3784 (13.73%) respectively. 25,906 (93.99%) were in 18-40 years age group and 1,654 (6%) were in 41-60 years age group. A total of 453 were detected as HBsAg seropostive. Among them, relatives of the patients were 363 (1.7%) and voluntary donors were 90 (1.4%).
