“…11,13 The seroprevalence of HbsAg in the present study was 1.9%, which is comparable to Karmakar et al study conducted at Kolkata (1.41%) and also Yildiz et al study (1.66%). 5,8 Similarly, the proportion of HCV 'Reactive' donors in the present study was 0.24%, very much comparable to the study done by Pallavi P et al at Mysore. 9 The seroprevalence of the syphilis in the present study was 0.18%, which was comparable to the findings in Karmakar et al study (0.23%) and Pallavi P et al study (0.28%).…”

Transfusion Transmitted Infections (TTI) play an important role in disease causation. Screening for various TTIs is very important at blood banks, which helps in reducing the seroprevalence of TTIs in general population. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES1. To estimate the seroprevalence of TTIs in Anantapur district over a period of 6 months. 2. To study the association between Rh type of the blood group and the prevalence of TTIs. MATERIALS AND METHODSRecord based study; Blood donor's data and details of common TTIs screened at blood bank along with Rh type of their blood groups was collected over a period of six months and subjected to data analysis using proportions and chi-square test. RESULTSThe total sample size was 1688. Overall seroprevalence of TTIs is 2.42%. The seroprevalence of individual TTI i.e. HIV, Hep B, Hep C, Syphilis and malaria was 0.1%, 1.9%, 0.24%, 0.18% and 0% respectively. There was no significant association found between presence of TTI and Rh type of the blood donor. CONCLUSIONThe burden of TTI is quite high and steps to be taken to maintain the quality of screening methods in blood banks to reduce the risk of TTI in general population.

“…Higher rates of communicable diseases in replacement donors were found in studies in Brazil and Egypt (Messih, Ismail, Saad, & Azer, 2014;I.R. Silva & Cardim, 2017) while studies in Turkey and Argentina have not reported differences between voluntary and replacement donations (Iajya, Lacetera, Macis, & Slonim 2013;Yildiz et al, 2015). Prudence should be exercised in the use of replacement donation as a strategy to encourage longterm donation, considering that first-time donors also represent a greater risk of transmitting infections (Kane, Bloch, Bruhn, Kaidarova, & Murphy, 2015;Sun, Lu, & Jin, 2016).…”

Voluntary blood donation is the only way to supply the hemotherapic system in Brazil and it depends on the population. Inductive campaigns are tools to attract donors, but they seem not to be influencing the donation behavior. This study aimed to investigate the donors’ perception of incentive campaigns for donation. Six donors participated; a number defined by saturation of the content. Data were collected through a sociodemographic questionnaire and semi-structured interview about the motivations to donate, donors’ perception of campaigns to which they were exposed, and their donation experiences. The thematic analysis was used to examine the data. Participants perceive a lack of emotional appeal and insufficient use of social media in campaigns to encourage donation. Results suggest campaigns should use different strategies to reach other audiences, increase the presence in social media, and relate positive feelings to the act of donating.

“…No que se refere ao estado civil, verificou-se uma elevada frequência de inaptidão sorológica para sífilis entre indivíduos casados, assim como observado em estudos semelhantes 22 . Esta alta freqüência pode estar associada a relações extraconjugais sem proteção, trazendo assim maior risco para doenças sexualmente transmissíveis.…”

Os objetivos desta pesquisa foram estimar a prevalência de doadores de sangue reativos para sífilis e descrever o perfil epidemiológico, analisando as frequências de acordo com as variáveis sexo, faixa etária, estado civil, município de residência e tipo de doação, no HEMOLAGOS/RJ, no período de janeiro de 2013 a dezembro de 2015. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, de caráter exploratório a partir dos dados registrados no Sistema de Informação HemotePlus. Neste período foram recebidos 15.461 candidatos à doação de sangue. Destes, 250 (2,13%) apresentaram resultado sorológico reativo para sífilis. Observou-se um decréscimo de aproximadamente 25,3% de doadores com amostras de sangue reativas para a sífilis ao longo dos anos do estudo. A maior frequência de doadores inaptos para sífilis ocorreu no sexo masculino (68,4%). A média de idade da população de doadores inaptos foi de 41,52 anos e desvio padrão de 12,9 anos. Dos doadores inaptos para sífilis, 96,0% residiam nos municípios que compõem a Região dos Lagos. As doações do tipo reposição apresentaram o maior percentual de doadores inaptos (68,8%). Os resultados apontam para um perfil geral da população doadora do Hemolagos/RJ com amostras reativas para a sífilis, destacando a necessidade de um trabalho de captação com os candidatos à doação e a importância de um acolhimento ao doador reativo. Ressalta-se também a necessidade de implementar outros processos de identificação e tratamento da doença na população, bem como a necessidade de avaliar a eficácia dos programas voltados para as DST.
