When do benefits turn to risks? Impact of a 900  mL whole blood donation on Special Forces performance
This study investigates the effect of a 900 mL blood donation on SF operator performance and recovery time following this donation.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Participants underwent a multifactorial assessment including measures of physiological parameters, vigilance, and physical performance. Results from the day of blood donation were compared with baseline values obtained 1 week earlier (i.e., immediate effect), as well as repeated testing at 7, 14, and approximately 30 days after blood donation (i.e., recovery period).RESULTS: Hemoglobin levels and heart rate were affected by giving blood. The participants also experienc...

Donor complication rates in whole blood, plasma and platelet donors: Age versus experience
DISCUSSION: When properly accounting for donor experience, donor complication rate profiles clearly change with age. The increased risk for moderate/severe vasovagal syncope in older donors should be clearly communicated. Extra caution is needed if these donors are accepted for first-time donations.PMID:38385649 | DOI:10.1111/trf.17759 (Source: Transfusion)

Iatrogenic blood loss from phlebotomy during adult extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A retrospective cohort study
DISCUSSION: Phlebotomy for laboratory testing is a significant source of blood loss during ECMO in adults. Comprehensive patient blood management for adult ECMO patients should include strategies to reduce laboratory testing and/or phlebotomy volume during ECMO.PMID:38385665 | DOI:10.1111/trf.17729 (Source: Transfusion)
