“…The overall deferral rate in our study was 7.3% which was slightly higher in comparison to other reported Indian studies by Sundar et al [7] (5.84%), Unnikrishnan et al [8] (5.2%), Sharma et al [9] (5.1%), and Malaysian study by Rabeya et al [10] (5.6%). Jethani et al [11] reported voluntary donation of 83.68%, whereas Kulkarni109 reported voluntary donation of 83%. In our study, voluntary donation was significantly higher than the replacement donation (78% vs. 22%).…”

“…According to our study the predominant reason for deferral was heart/renal/thyroid disease (61.11%) followed by HIV/HBsAg/HCV positivity (16.66%). Bahadur et al [12] and Jethani et al [11] (70%) also reported hypertension as the commonest cause. However, Taneja et al and Aneke et al reported HIV/HBsAg/HCV positivity as their commonest reason for permanent deferral with 51.9% and 90.0% respectively, followed by hypertension, epilepsy and syphilis.…”

Background: Blood donor programme is vital to any transfusion service. This process of blood donation involves voluntary and non remunerated blood donors. The objective of donor screening is to minimize the chances of transmitting infectious agents to recipients. Material and Method: The study was conducted during one year duration from 2017-2018. A total of 700 donors are deferred against 9556 blood donors recruited on the basis of clinical history and brief medical examination in blood bank and voluntary blood donation camps. Donors were deferred temporarily or permanently. Result: Out of 700 deferred donors; 546 were voluntary and 154 were replacement blood donors. Male (601) outnumbered female (99). There were 682 temporary and 18 permanent deferral. Most common age group for deferral was 17-30 yrs (490). Common causes included anemia(142), on medication(108), underweight(83) and high blood pressure(72). Conclusion: Donor selection process is a most important preliminary step in blood banking and should follow stringent medical and regulatory rules. Studying and analysing the profile of blood donors will help to identify sections of the population which could be targeted to increase the pool of voluntary blood donors. Every attempt should be made to decrease the donor deferral keeping in view the safety of both donor and recipients. Keywords: Blood donor, Deferral, Voluntary, Temporary, Permanent.

“…Donor deferral due to temporary reasons was much higher than permanent reasons similar to studies reported in literature. 9,11,12,13 Among temporary reasons for deferral, most common cause was low hemoglobin 360(37.08%), followed by alcohol intake 78 (8.03%), tattoo 32 (3.29%). Anemia was the most common temporary cause of deferral similar to other studies in literature.…”

“…This is similar to studies in literature. 6,12,13,14,19,20 The cause of hypertension may be due to fear of first time donation, white coat hypertension, anxiety, exertion before blood donation. 9 Most of donors are noticed with hypertension for the first time, hypertension usually goes unnoticed and it is a incidental finding.…”

Introduction: Blood transfusion saves millions of lives. Donors undergo certain stringent selection criteria to ensure safe and quality blood and blood products. During such process it is likely that donors may get deferred either temporarily or permanently. Deferral leads to precious loss of donors and blood units. Morever rates and reasons of deferral vary from region to region. The aim of the study was to analyse rates and reasons of donor deferral in our hospital. Material and Methods: It is a retrospective study done over a period of 6 years from January 2012 to December 2017. Details of donors who were deferred either temporarily or permanently during the study period was collected from the donor registry. Results: Out of the 15,807 donors who registered for blood donation during study period, 971 donors were deferred due to several reasons both temporarily and permanently. Total deferral rate of 6% as comparable to other studies in literature. Conclusion: Knowledge about rates and reasons of donor deferral may guide medical personnel to focus on donor screening. Proper follow up measures can be carried out in case of temporarily deferred donors to bring them back to donor pool.

Background: Blood transfusion saves lives and improves health, but many patients requiring transfusion do not have timely access to safe blood. Providing safe and adequate blood should be an integral part of every country’s national health care policy and infrastructure. Aim: The main aim of the study was to analyze the reasons for pre-donation deferral amongst blood donors attending our blood bank and outdoor camp organized by our blood bank and to evaluate and categorize the reasons into temporary and permanent deferral. Materials and methods: It is a Record based Retrospective Study conducted in Department of Immunohematology and blood transfusion over a period of two years from July 2015 to July 2017. The reasons of deferral were analyzed after classification into following categories, namely, temporary- permanent deferral, in-house –camp blood donors, gender-based (male -female), and various age group categories. Results: A total of 30,022 prospective blood donors registered for blood donation out of which 2241 blood donors were deferred (7.46%) with low hemoglobin level, medication and hypertension as top three causes. The majority of deferral was seen in 18-25 years of age group which mainly comprises the youth population. The female donors were rejected eight times the male donors. Conclusion: The knowledge of the deferral incidences and their causes in a particular region helps in deciding the magnitude and the direction of the blood donor recruitment efforts. This knowledge also helps in calculating the eligible and the potential blood donor pool. Keywords: Blood Donors, Pre-Donation, Deferral, Temporary, Permanent.
