A conditional logistic regression analysis by age group and sex was conducted, using each donor as a stratum, together with an analysis of deviance to test the significance of including an interaction term between age group and blood data in the regression model.Results: A total of 1873 donors were included in the analysis. Haemoglobin, haematocrit, total protein and albumin values prior to donation were higher when a VVR was observed than when it was not for each age group and sex. The regression analysis showed significant positive associations between each of these blood parameters and VVR in all combinations of age groups and sex. A particularly strong positive association between haemoglobin and VVRs is seen in women aged ≥50 years (odds ratio, OR [95% confidence interval, CI]: 1.844 [1.457, 2.333]).Conclusion: Haemoglobin, haematocrit, total protein and albumin levels within individual donors were significantly higher at donation with a VVR. This was most notable in women aged ≥50 years. Comparing the pre-donation haemoglobin value with past values in the same donor at the donation site would help raise awareness of the risk of VVRs.","PeriodicalId":23631,"journal":{"name":"Vox Sanguinis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142923619","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A targeted search for medical guidelines and a free search were added.Results: When assessing the impact of the transfusion modality on the QoL of patients with SCD, some studies indicated an improvement in health-related QoL when using aRBCX while others reported no differences. The benefits of aRBCX include a decrease in length of hospital stay, pain-related hospitalizations and procedure time. The drawbacks of aRBCX were also identified, including an increased number of procedure-related complications (despite the overall number of complications showing no significant differences) and a more complex vascular access. Chronic red blood cell exchange favours psychosocial factors such as anxiety and social functioning, but the impact of using aRBCX in these parameters is not determined yet.Conclusion: aRBCX, known to be an efficient procedure to manage SCD, appears to be promising in improving patients' QoL. However, more comprehensive studies incorporating patient-reported outcomes are needed to fully understand the impact of different transfusion modalities on QoL in SCD patients.

Herein, the aim of this study was to establish a method for HLA and HPA typing based on the long read sequencing.Study design and methods: The HPA and HLA class I genotypes of 268 platelet donors from the Taiyuan Blood Center, China were identified using long-read sequencing on the PacBio platform. Allele frequencies for HPA systems and HLA class I genes were calculated, and genetic variability within HPA system genes was analysed.Results: Polymorphisms were identified in 8 of the 35 HPA systems (HPA-1 to HPA-6w, HPA-15 and HPA-21w), with the frequencies of the 'b' allele at 0.0187, 0.0709, 0.4086, 0.0075, 0.0149, 0.0317, 0.4310 and 0.0019, respectively. The alleles with the highest frequencies at the HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C loci are HLA-A02:01, B51:01, B46:01 and C06:02, respectively. Additionally, several genetic patterns in HPA systems were identified, including the c.166-1029C>T variant, which was found exclusively in samples carrying the HPA-1b allele.Conclusion: This study developed a targeted long-read sequencing method characterized by high throughput and simultaneity, capable of resolving allele ambiguities for effective HLA class I genotyping in establishing a platelet donor bank.","PeriodicalId":23631,"journal":{"name":"Vox Sanguinis","volume":" ","pages":"63-70"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142393743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical guidelines can be effective at improving the average quality of care; however, their impact on variation in practice is rarely studied. Herein, we estimated how variation in RBC use across cardiac surgeons changed after the publication of national patient blood management guidelines.Materials and methods: We performed a pre-post study estimating change in variation in RBC transfusions across 80 cardiac surgeons in 29 hospitals using a national cardiac surgery registry. Variation across surgeons was estimated using fixed-effects regressions controlling for surgery and patient characteristics and an empirical Bayes shrinkage to adjust for sampling error. RBC use was measured by three metrics-the total number of units transfused, the proportion of patients transfused and the number of units transfused, conditional on receiving RBC.Results: The primary analysis utilized 35,761 elective cardiac surgeries performed between March 2009 and February 2015 and identified a 24.5% reduction (p < 0.0001) in mean total units transfused accompanied by a 37.2% reduction (p = 0.040) in the variation across surgeons. The reduction in mean total units was driven by both the proportion of patients transfused and the number of units transfused, conditional on receiving RBC, while the reduction in variation was only driven by the latter.Conclusion: In our study of RBC transfusions across cardiac surgeons, the surgeons who used more RBC in the pre-guideline period experienced larger reductions in RBC use after the guidelines were published.","PeriodicalId":23631,"journal":{"name":"Vox Sanguinis","volume":" ","pages":"47-54"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11753820/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142476034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Operator satisfaction about the technologies introduced in daily routine work was also monitored.Results: Between 2013 and 2023, the annual production decreased by 16.0% for RCCs and increased by 13.3% for PCs. From 2020, all PCs were treated with pathogen reduction technology, and no inventory stock-out was reported. The lowest PC expiry rate (0.2%) was observed after the implementation of the software for blood processing and PC stock management. The deployment of this software also improved plasma recovery: on average, an extra plasma volume of 9 mL was collected per donation in 2023 compared to 2015. A survey confirmed staff satisfaction.Conclusion: The progressive implementation of automated and software-based solutions was key to increasing efficiencies in BTBA. This enabled the optimization of blood processing by maximizing productivity, enhancing traceability, reducing overproduction and wastage and increasing the yield of recovered plasma, while ensuring blood product safety and staff satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":23631,"journal":{"name":"Vox Sanguinis","volume":" ","pages":"32-38"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11753821/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142509003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
