Temporarily excluded whole blood donors at the collection center of the Hematology-Transfusion Department in Jihlava Hospital
CAHOVÁ, Barbora
This bachelor thesis is focused on the topic of Temporarily excluded whole blood donors at the collection center of the Hematology and Transfusion Department in the Jihlava Hospital. The theoretical part of the work generally deals with blood donation according to applicable regulations and recommendations. This section describes the criteria for donation, the course of blood donation, self-exclusion, the production of transfusion products, the donor registry, the valuation of blood donors and the risks associated with donation. The methodology of the work included measuring the blood count of donors. At the collection center in Jihlava, the result of the blood count is one of the donor's pre-collection examinations. The blood count of donors is measured on a Sysmex XN 1000 analyzer. The values of hemoglobin, leukocytes and platelets are especially important. The main goal of the bachelor thesis was to find out the reasons for the temporary exclusion of whole blood donors at the collection center in Jihlava. The practical part was developed on the basis of data from the information systems HEMO and TIS. The reasons for the temporary exclusion were evaluated for the period 2000-2020. Another goal of the work was to find out how donors are informed at the collection center. Part of the practical part was a questionnaire for blood donors, which served to verify the most common reasons for temporary exclusion. The second part of the questionnaire was about the awareness and satisfaction of donors at the collection center. According to the results of the work, donors are most often temporarily excluded due to low levels of hemoglobin (red dye). It is also obvious that women are more often excluded than men. According to the donors, the awareness at the collection center in Jihlava is very good, which follows from the results of the questionnaire. In some cases, the increased awareness can contribute to reducing the number of temporarily rejected blood donors.

Dušková, Daniela ; Tesař, Vladimír (advisor) ; Borovanský, Jan (referee) ; Průša, Richard (referee)
Project title: Optimalization of the regime of marker's examination of clinically important infections in blood donors Project author: Daniela Dušková, M.D. Project supervisor: prof. Vladimír Tesař, M.D., Dr.Sc., MBA, FASN The aim of this project is to contribute to the discussion about introducing the methods of molecular biology into the routine blood donor testing in the transfusions departments in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part includes a brief history and some turning points in transfusion medicine. The next part within the theoretical section is dedicated to the problems of infectious diseases concerning transfusion and the general examination processes used during the selection of blood donors. The end of the theoretical part concentrates on existing possibilities of markers' examination of clinically important infections in blood donors, including the list of processes performed in the Czech Republic, the European Union and other countries. The practical part describes this study, ie. the routine screening test of blood donors using the CMIA method (a routine method) and using RT-Real Time PCR method (a molecular biology method) for detecting infectious markers (HCV, HBV, HIV). Within this part, the principle of both methods and the process of actual examinations are described in...
Nurses and donors view on the problematics of blood donation
FUNDOVÁ, Simona
The main aim of this thesis is to map the issue of blood donation from the perspective of nurses and donors. The theoretical part is focused on issues related to blood donation. The criteria which the donor must comply are described, as well as the benefits provided to blood donors, the types of donations and the complications of the donations. There is also a description of blood donation from the viewpoint of both donors and nurses. The research is focused on motivating and demotivating factors connected with blood donation, complications associated with blood collection and an overall view of the blood donation process by both donors and nurses. The empirical part of the thesis is elaborated by means of a qualitative research which is carried out by the technique of semi-structured interview. The interviews are conducted by blood donors and nurses working at the Blood Donor Station in one of the South Bohemian hospitals. The research achieved lots of results. According to the findings, the main motivation of the interviewed donors was a selfless help to another person. On the contrary, demotivating factors of the donators were lack of time and fear of potential complications. Another outcome of the research pointed to donor satisfaction with nursing care and the approach of nurses at the blood donor station in general. On the other hand, the perspective of the nurses was mapped too. The main finding from their point of view was the communication with donors which appeared as the most difficult action of the whole blood donation process. Following the results from nurses, the most frequent complication connected with blood donation are an overall nausea, collapse and haematoma. The work provides an overview of blood donation. The output is information material for potential blood donors.

Reasons of discarding blood donors at transfusion department of Hospital České Budějovice a.s.
KRÁLOVÁ, Michaela
The topic of thesis are reasons for discarding blood donors. The aim of this thesis is to evaluace the amount of discarded blood donors and the reasons for elimination in 2015 and 2016, further implementation of pre-sampling and post-sampling tests in the Blood Bank Department of the Hospital ČB, Ltd. In the theoretical part I attend to important events in the history of transfusion medicine. Next I deal with criteria for receiving blood donors, evaluation of the blood donors and ways, amounts and frequency of blood collections. The important part of my thesis are the reasons for discarding blood donors, which are divided into temporary and permanent. There are registers, in which these donors are registered. In the methodological part I attend to pre-sampling and post-sampling tests, which are performed in the Blood Bank Department of the Hospital ČB, Ltd. At pre-sampling laboratory measurement of hemoglobin amount on HemoCue 201+ is performed. For new blood donors the blood group orientation is examined on the slide. Donors plasma, platelets or in case of chylozity blood at the last sample hematokrit is examined. Further examination post-sampling test, which are include tests of infectious markers and imunohematology. For examination infectious markers are of service analyzer Architect, tests make on this analyzer are: Ab anti HCV, Ag and Ab HIV, Ab against Treponema pallidum and HBsAg. Immunohematology tests are examination with a dispenser Qasar and imagine analyzer Duet Reader. These two devices are jointly involved in the testing of AB0 blood group and RhD, screening of irregular anti-erythrocyte antibodies and examination of a group of Rh Kell. In 2015 there were 15 048 blood donors and 360 women and 306 men were discarded. In 2016 there were 15 788 blood donors and 286 women and 211 men were discarded. The most blood donors were discarded because of unsufficient amount of hemoglobin.
