Iron Status in Blood Donor Dogs
BACKGROUND Despite the popularity of canine blood donor (BD) programs, there is scarce scientific information regarding iron status in this canine population of dogs. OBJECTIVE To assess iron status in dogs used in a blood donor program. ANIMALS A total of 130 healthy dogs (75 BD, 55 controls [C]) were included. A subset of dogs (n = 12) were used to evaluate the effects of repetitive donat...
متن کاملIron status in voluntary blood donors

The present study shows the importance of measuring the iron stores and then proposed a strategy to prev...
متن کاملComputer-based blood donor screening: a status report.
There is a substantial literature suggesting that computer-assisted interviewing has advantages over face-to-face and written self-administration of interviews in venues eliciting sensitive information similar to that sought in blood donor history screening. We review some of the recent developments in blood donor history screening, the evidence suggesting that automated interviews should be us...
متن کاملTissue Banking: Relationship with Blood Donor and Organ Donor Card Status
Understanding the relationships among altruistic health acts may serve to aid therapeutic research advances. In this paper, we report on the links between two such behaviours-donating blood and carrying an organ donor card-and willingness to donate urological tissue to a tissue bank. Reasons for the differential willingness to do so are examined in this paper. A systematic sample of 259 new and...
متن کاملQuantification of body iron and iron absorption in the REDS-II Donor Iron Status Evaluation (RISE) study.
BACKGROUND Repeated blood donation alters the iron balance of blood donors. We quantified these effects by analyzing changes in body iron as well as calculating iron absorbed per day for donors enrolled in a prospective study. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS For 1308 donors who completed a final study visit, we calculated total body iron at the enrollment and final visits and the change in total bod...
