Changes in hematological parameters of long-term high-frequency platelet donors
Journal Title: Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion - Year 2022, Vol 35, Issue 12
Abstract
Objective To understand the effect of long-term high-frequency platelet donation on the health, safety and platelet quality of blood donors. Methods From August 2020 to July 2022, blood donors who donated platelets for single collection in the station were selected as two groups: those who donated for 20-29 times and those who donated for 30-44 times. Such 14 test indexes as red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), platelet count (Plt), white blood cell count (WBC), large platelet ratio (P-LCR), lymphocyte (LYM) , neutrophil (NE), mean hemoglobin content (MCH), mean hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), platelet specific volume (PCT), mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) were grouped and statistically analyzed for 5 times in each group. In addition, blood donors who have donated platelets more than 100 times in the station were chosen; the changes of their 5 parameters as RBC, Hb, Hct, PLT and WBC, as well as the correlation with the total number of platelet donations were analyzed through statistical analysis of the first 100 donations(10 donations/group). Results During 2 years, the hematological parameters were similar between 20-29 donation group(n=30) and 30-44 donation group(n=11) (P>0.05). For donors with donations≥100 occasions, RBC, Hb, Hct and WBC were negatively correlated with the number of blood donations, while Plt was positively correlated. There were significant differences in Hb, Hct, WBC and Plt among groups (P<0.05). Hb, Hct and WBC showed a downward trend, while Plt showed an upward trend. Conclusion With the increase of blood donations and units of blood donated, some changes in hematological parameters are observed among long-term high-frequency platelet donors. Monitoring and health education should be strengthened to ensure the safety and quality of blood donors.
