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.
