Reported incidence of adverse reactions in plateletpheresis donors in China: a meta-analysis

Abstract

Objective To analyze the overall situation and main influencing factors of adverse reactions of blood donation of apheresis platelet donors in China by systematic review, and to provide basis for preventing and controlling adverse reactions of platelet donation and improving the quality of blood donation service. Methods CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, Pubmed and Embase databases were searched to collect cross-section studies on adverse reactions of platelet donation in China. The observation period was ≥6 months, and the retrieval time was from 1998 to March 2023. The studies were independently screened by 2 evaluators according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data extraction and literature quality evaluation were carried out, and meta analysis was performed by Stata 14.0 software. Results A total of 91 literature involving 585 769 apheresis platelet donors were included, and 9 102 of them had adverse reactions. Random effect model meta-analysis showed that the total incidence of adverse reactions of platelet donation was 2.65% [95% CI(2.04, 3.45), P0.01). The incidence of adverse reactions of blood donation for first-time donors and repeat donors was 2.16% [(95%CI (1.18, 3.95)] and 1.12% [(95% CI(0.35, 3.58)], with the former higher than the latter(P0.01). Conclusion It′s suggested to unify the monitoring standards of adverse reactions of apheresis platelet donation, understand and master the factors that affect the adverse reactions of apheresis platelet donors, so as to improve the quality of apheresis platelet donation service and ensure the safety of donations.
