Blood donation is globally encouraged from the public for the use of ill patients who might need blood transfusion. Many laboratories do urge people to donate blood willingly. The donors are usually checked properly and are screened for some notable blood borne diseases and the blood level of these potential donors is checked to ensure that the donor is capable of donating blood. For regular donors, the last dates that they donated are checked just to be sure that the interval is not too close.

Abstract:
Ninety-five percent of all blood donors are Caucasian. To investigate why minorities are under-represented as blood donors, a random sample of 120 minority college students were surveyed about attitudes and behavior regarding blood donations. This sample of minority students had donated blood at the same rate (33%) and for the same positive motivation (altruism) and negative motivations (for those who did not donate—fear, medical excuses, didn't think of it, no time) as Caucasian donors. The low rate of blood donations by minorities is not due to their membership in ethnic groups per se, but t

<strong>Introduction:</strong> Blood donation is an integral part of the healthcare system, and it increases the chances of life expectancy. Blood is essential during an accidental emergency, pregnancy, anaemia, and other disorders. Doubtless, blood and blood components demand increased in recent years, but finding regular donors remains a challenge. Adequate knowledge may help to motivate people to donate blood.

Blood is a vital fluid where required for saving human’s life. Blood is stored in a blood bank which is a bank of blood components, gathered as a result of blood donations that are responsible for collecting, storing and preserved for the use of medical purpose. Investigation of the existing blood collection and tracking system is essential to efficiently manage, control and monitor on all aspect of a blood bank.

Abstract:
In the last decade a special focus has been based on blood donation system. This is due to two key factors: decline in the number of donors and rising amount of infectious diseases incidence, which increase cost of donated blood procurement. According to WHO recommendations, one of the factors that will improve viral safety of donated blood is information space which includes medical facilities and blood centers. We have analyzed information flows in Pavlodar Region Blood Center in order to formalize them for creation of an information system model.

Allogenic blood product transfusion and organ donation are critical components of modern medicine. However, only 5 per cent of the eligible population donate blood and only 53 per cent declare themselves organ donors. Trauma surgeons have an intimate exposure to these needs and their personal donation patterns may reflect this knowledge. A 14 question survey about personal blood and organ donation was sent to 635 members of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma by e-mail. Seventy-eight per cent of respondents have donated blood and 86 per cent of those donors have done so repeated

Organ donation is becoming more common but there is still a large gap between the number of people requiring transplants and the organs donated. There are set criteria for organ donation. When organ donation is considered after brain death, the physician must ensure that the prerequisites for testing are met and proceed to establish brain death using standard guidelines. The pathophysiological changes that occur after brain death must be borne in mind and utmost care should be given to counter those changes that would result in dysfunction of the donated organs.

Abstract:
Introduction: The ABO blood group system is the most clinically recognized and routinely investigated blood group system in donated blood used for transfusions in Sub-Saharan Africa, due to its immunogenicity and the potential for antibodies against ABO antigens to cause the destruction of transfused red blood cells. However, research has shown that the unrecognized Kell antigen and its associated phenotypes also have potent immunogenic potential that could contribute to transfusion reactions. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the prevalence of ABO and Kell blood group antigens in 287
