Donor rehabilitation after repeated blood donations
At the present time the question about using plasma from donors who have had a coronavirus infection and from those with the specific antibodies for transfusion to patients in the acute stage of the process is being repeatedly raised on the background of the worldwide fight against coronavirus. They were the first to resort to such practices in St. Petersburg in Russia, however, it is too early to talk about any high-efficiency transfusions. It is necessary to take into account the fact that in the presence of three hundred patients who need transfusion of immune plasma, an antibody titer has been detected in only 12 donors. Given the existing circumstances, it is necessary to remember about the importance of observing the intervals between donations, whether it is plasma or whole blood. Failure to comply with these intervals, the lack of regular monitoring of clinical and biochemical blood parameters in donors, failure to comply with recommendations for observing the diet and rest between donations can lead to decompensation of recovery processes and seriously affect health of the donor. Donor rehabilitation during the recovery period requires normalization of the diet, and in some cases oral administration of preparations.
