A novel approach to increasing inventory with the current panel: increasing donation frequency by asking for a different blood product

摘要

BACKGROUNDOngoing shortages of blood products may be addressed through additional donations. However, donation frequency rates are typically lower than medically possible. This preliminary study aims to determine voluntary nonremunerated whole blood (WB) and plasmapheresis donors' willingness, and subsequent facilitators and barriers, to make additional donations of a different type.
