EDUKASI KADER PKK MENJADI PERINTIS KAMPUNG DONOR DARAH MANDIRI SAAT PANDEMI COVID-19

The Corona Virus-19 (Covid-19) outbreak in Indonesia has caused many problems including blood supply which will be significantly affected by decreasing the amount of blood donated. The Blood Transfusion Unit (UTD) must be ready to move quickly in response to the changes that occur, where an adequate blood supply is most likely to be affected. Purpose: to encourage the community of Partners to become voluntary blood donors so that they can help residents in keeping the availability of blood safe during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Methods: cadres from members of Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) Sungapan, Sriharjo, Imogiri, Bantul, were trained to carry out initial donor selection examinations including blood pressure checks, hemoglobin level checks, blood type checks and doing it independently so that it can increase the role of voluntary blood donors. This outreach activity is to educate the community to form a cadre of PKK mothers to be trained in conducting initial donor selection checks so that data can be used as a means of obtaining voluntary donors in Mitra areas and creating independent blood donor villages. Conclusion: PKK cadres have been able to provide counseling to residents and are able to check blood pressure, hemoglobin levels and blood type keywords: cadre, blood donation village

Donated Blood

Background: The aim of donor selection should protect donors from any potential harm which may occur as a direct result of the donation process; secondly, shall protect recipients of blood transfusions from adverse effects, such as transmission of infectious diseases or other medical conditions and unwanted effects caused by any medications taken by the donor. Any reason for deferral, whether temporary or permanent, have been explained to the donor and recorded as per National Guideline and Blood Safety Law. Literature search showed there is dearth information on replacement blood donors in Bangladesh. So this study has been done to evaluate replacement family blood donors, exploring their demographic status, occupation, blood groups and why they were rejected during donor selection.Methods: This study was done to assess the demographic profile and blood group among family blood donors during donor selection. Age, weight, occupation, blood group and blood pressure have been explored among randomly selected two hundred ninety one blood donors attending Transfusion Medicine Department of BIRDEM as per Guideline.Results: Among them 261 (89.69%) were male and 30 (10.31%) were female with M±SD age 29±6 and 29±7 (yrs), respectively. Blood group of replacement family donors were, A positive (39.7%), B positive 90(32%), O positive 18 (6%), AB positive 39 (13%) majority (57.04%) were unmarried , 52.58% were doing business, while students were 29.90% and job holders were only 17.53%. Among nine deferred donors females were mainly rejected (89.28%) and the contributing factor was low blood pressure according to guideline. Finally 96.91% successful family blood donors donated blood for the patient party.Conclusion: Our study showed proper selection and following of blood donation guideline help to determine the eligibility to donate blood. Moreover, this pilot study may contribute in evaluation of Bangladeshi family blood donors those had positive blood group and negative serological markers as per WHO (World Health Organization) guideline for Bangladesh.Birdem Med J 2016; 6(2): 112-117

Voluntary Basis

Social networking among blood donors is important in sustaining the intention to consistently donate blood on a voluntary basis. The interaction between blood donors who share the same interest might indirectly increase the possibility of blood donation in the future. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the role of social capital among blood donors as a moderator to understand the blood donors’ motivation and intention to donate. This study hypothesizes that Social Capital among Blood Donors (SCBD) increases motivational aspects (attitude, self-efficacy, subjective norms, anticipated regret, self-identity as blood donor, social awareness, and humanitarian) in blood donation. A number of 431 respondents, registered as blood donors at the National Blood Centre, Kuala Lumpur were recruited via random sampling. Data was collected using self-administered questionnaires. Results from correlation showed that all motivational aspects, except for subjective norm, were significantly correlated with the intention to donate blood. Meanwhile, results from the regression test reflected that forming social capital among blood donors could strengthen the blood donors’ attitude and the sense of social awareness, which in turn strengthen their intention to donate blood. This finding implies that blood donation campaigns need to highlight the aspect of social capital in the networking of blood donors, such as encouraging them to bring other people to donate blood. This could help to promote the significance of social capital among blood donors. Future researches need to pay attention to the role of social capital as a mechanism that influences the motivational aspects, which help to sustain the intention in volunteering activities. Abstrak Jaringan sosial penderma darah adalah penting bagi membantu mengekalkan konsistensi niat untuk menderma darah secara sukarela. Interaksi antara penderma darah yang berkongsi minat yang sama secara tidak langsung meningkatkan kemungkinan terhadap penglibatan menderma darah di masa depan. Oleh itu, kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji peranan modal sosial dalam kalangan penderma darah sebagai moderator bagi memahami motivasi dan niat menderma darah. Kajian ini menjangkakan bahawa Modal Sosial Penderma Darah (MSPD) berupaya meningkatkan motivasi (sikap, efikasi diri, norma subjektif, jangkaan penyesalan, identiti sebagai penderma darah, keprihatinan sosial dan ihsan) untuk menderma darah. Seramai 431 penderma darah yang berdaftar di Pusat Darah Negara, Kuala Lumpur telah dikenalpasti sebagai responden berdasarkan persampelan rawak. Data dikumpul menggunakan soal selidik. Hasil analisis korelasi mendapati bahawa semua aspek motivasi mempunyai hubungan signifikan terhadap niat menderma darah, kecuali norma subjektif. Hasil analisis regresi pula mendapati bahawa modal sosial mengukuhkan sikap penderma darah dan keprihatinan sosial terhadap niat menderma darah. Dapatan kajian ini mencadangkan bahawa kempen pendermaan darah perlu mengukuhkan aspek modal sosial penderma darah, misalnya melalui galakan menderma darah terhadap individu lain dalam jaringan sosial penderma darah. Melalui usaha ini, ia akan dapat membantu mempromosikan kepentingan modal sosial dalam kalangan penderma darah. Kajian akan datang perlu memberi perhatian terhadap peranan modal sosial sebagai mekanisme yang mempengaruhi aspek motivasi yang membantu mengekalkan niat penglibatan dalam aktiviti sukarela. Kata kunci: Niat, menderma darah, modal sosial, sikap, jaringan sosial.

Background: Unfinished root formation has always offered challenges in endodontics due to technical difficulties and weakened teeth resistance during the lifetime of an individual. Pulp revascularization therapy appeared as a solution for apical closure and root maturation. The existence of oral stem cells involved in the process associated with traditional resident cells requires adequate blood supply given by induced controlled injury deliberately accomplished into the periapical zone. Objective: The aim of this work was to research, through literature review, the main mechanisms involved in the process of apical closure through the technique of pulp revascularization. Conclusion: Apice closure in pulpless teeth seems to happen as a result of professional intervention and biological activity. The success rate depends on the role of traditional local immune cells and stem cells associated with adequate blood supply to finish root formation.

Summary This article aims to present the impact of social networks on the formation on the flow of blood and its components in the civilian blood donation system in Poland. The civilian blood donation system in Poland consists of 21 independently-functioning supply chains of blood and its components (Szołtysek, Twaróg 2009, p. 15). Today, logistics plays a secondary role in the management of blood supply chains, and the integration of flow is performed randomly and intuitively. The rapidly growing recognition of social logistics (T. Takahasi 1988, pp. 245 - 251; Tenhunen 2008, pp. 515-534; Szołtysek 2010, pp. 2-6; Szołtysek 2011, pp.13-18) provides tools to improve the efficiency of the blood donation system in terms of both the existing blood supply chains, and the potential offered by network structures. An unexpected change in demand for blood and its components probably induces a bullwhip effect, and the organizations that form the chains have to deal with supplies unreasonable in terms of their size and structure. A major role in this process is played by social networks, as a source of general mobilization among potential blood donors. Finding a way to change the relationship between social networks and the system of blood donation may minimize the disruptions occurring in the flow of blood and its components in Poland.

The Relationship

Introduction: Voluntary blood donation can be considered as an expression of pro-social behaviour, resulting from empathetic motives and a desire to help those in need of a transfusion of whole blood or it’s components, as it was demonstrated by numerous studies. The process of donation is carried out in accordance with the prescribed stages, which include the initial qualification and examination of the blood and exclusion of any diseases or postoperative complications that may have negative consequences for the future recipient. In view of the current trend in psychological research in the group of blood donors, we decided to examine the factors that may coexist and enhance empathy in this group, these factors being the disposition to forgiveness and satisfaction with life. Method: Main purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between life satisfaction, disposition to forgiveness, and empathy quotient, the level of explanation of empathy by life satisfaction and forgiveness, and the mediating role of forgiveness between life satisfaction and empathy in a group of honorary blood donors. The study group amounted to 111 subjects (72 women and 39 men). The mean age of the subjects was 24.9 years (SD=8.7). The study variables were measured using the scales: SWLS, HFS and SSIE. Results: The results of the conducted study showed associations between forgiveness and empathy and life satisfaction, and a satisfactory level of explanation of empathy by forgiveness (with a higher proportion of positive forgiveness) and life satisfaction. Mediation analysis also showed that forgiveness indirectly explains the relationship of life satisfaction and empathy. The correlation of blood donation seniority with life satisfaction and general and negative forgiveness was also found to be significant. Conclusions: The results of the conducted study can be considered as a contribution to further, more extensive research within the group of honorary blood donors. The results were confirmed in the literature, indicating a strong relationship between forgiveness and empathy, which may constitute a basis for the conclusion that forgiveness and life satisfaction resulting from longer length of blood donation may strengthen the level of empathy, as well as empathy itself may strengthen the level of forgiveness and life satisfaction.

Blood type phenotype incompatibility including Rhesus between donors and patients may result in cross-matching problems, triggering alloimmunization, and caused Hemolytic Transfusion Reaction (HTR). Rhesus blood type incompatibility between mother and fetus may cause Hemolytic Disease of Fetus and Newborn (HDFN). Pretransfusion phenotypic blood groups matching also reduce cost efficiently which means antibody screening is no longer needed. The purpose of the study is to find the proportion Rhesus blood type phenotypes in routine blood donors at Blood Donor Unit, Indonesian Red Cross in Bandung city, Indonesia.The study is a descriptive and observational with cross sectional design. The study was done at Blood Donor Unit, Indonesian Red Cross in Bandung city from April 2016 to September 2017. The subjects were 142 routine blood donors, blood sampling was done simultaneously with blood donation. Rhesus antigen examination of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) blood was done by gel method. Subjects characteristics were male (68%) and female (32%), with the mean age was 39 years. Examination of Rhesus antigen were found antigen D(100%), antigen e(98,6%), antigen C(97,9%), antigen c(38,7%) and antigen E(31,7%).

Objectives The prevalence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 among blood donors in China remains unknown. To reveal the missing information, we investigated the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies among blood donors in the cities of Wuhan, Shenzhen, and Shijiazhuang of China. Design Cross-sectional study Setting Three blood centers, located in the central, south and north China, respectively, recruiting from January to April 2020. Participants 38,144 healthy blood donors donated in Wuhan, Shenzhen and Shijiazhuang were enrolled, who were all met the criteria for blood donation during the COVID-19 pandemic in China. Main outcome measures Specific antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 including total antibody (TAb), IgG antibody against receptor-binding domain of spike protein (IgG-RBD) and nucleoprotein (IgG-N), and IgM. Pseudotype lentivirus-based neutralization test was performed on all TAb-positive samples. In addition, anonymous personal demographic information, including gender, age, ethnicity, occupation and educational level, and blood type were collected. Results A total of 519 samples from 410 donors were confirmed by neutralization tests. The SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence among blood donors was 2.29% (407/17,794, 95%CI: 2.08% to 2.52%) in Wuhan, 0.029% (2/6,810, 95%CI: 0.0081% to 0.11%) in Shenzhen, and 0.0074% (1/13,540, 95%CI: 0.0013% to 0.042%) in Shijiazhuang, respectively. The earliest emergence of SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity in blood donors was identified on January 20, 2020 in Wuhan. The weekly prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in Wuhan's blood donors changed dynamically and were 0.08% (95%CI: 0.02% to 0.28%) during January 15 to 22 (before city lockdown), 3.08% (95%CI: 2.67% to 3.55%) during January 23 to April 7 (city quarantine period) and 2.33% (95%CI: 2.06% to 2.63%) during April 8 to 30 (after lockdown easing). Female and older-age were identified to be independent risk factors for SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity among donors in Wuhan. Conclusions The prevalence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 among blood donors in China was low, even in Wuhan city. According to our data, the earliest emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in Wuhan's donors should not earlier than January, 2020. As most of the population of China remained uninfected during the early wave of COVID-19 pandemic, effective public health measures are still certainly required to block viral spread before a vaccine is widely available.
