Analysis on carrying out voluntary blood donation in grassroots communities

Abstract

Objective To understand the situation of non-remunerated blood donation in grassroots communities and the basic situation of blood donors, and to provide scientific basis for the development of non-remunerated blood donors. Methods Unpaid blood donors from the center from July to October 2015 and July to October 2016 were selected as research objects, and their relevant data were statistically analyzed. Results From July to October 2016, the center participated in 26 968 unpaid blood donors and donated 51 405 U of blood. From July to October 2015, the center participated in 22 682 unpaid blood donors and donated 6 805.5 U of blood. The number of blood donations increased by 18.90% year-on-year, and the amount of blood donated increased by 39.67% year-on-year from July to October 2016, among the people who participated in voluntary blood donation in the center, the age distribution of street blood donors and community blood donors was compared, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=164.94, P<0.05). The gender distribution was compared, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=228.47, P<0.05). The education level distribution was compared, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=660.63, P<0.05). The retest results was compared, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=31.48, P<0.05). Conclusion It can increase the number of unpaid blood donors, relieve the shortage of blood inventory, motivate the enthusiasm of community residents to donate blood, and satisfy the willingness of people in remote grassroots communities to participate in voluntary blood donation.In view of the characteristics of the community, targeted blood donation publicity methods should be adopted to guide the community to actively participate in voluntary blood donation, so as to form a good environment for the whole community to care for and support voluntary blood donation.
