Residual risk of infections transmission by blood transfusion
The prevalence and incidence of infections among Russian blood donors in 2010 -2012 has been determined. Estimated residual risk of transfusion infection was as follows: for HIV - 162, HCV - 337; HBV - 971 per 1 million donations. In the information system of the blood service AIST data should be divided based on positive results of screening and confirmatory tests for markers of infection. High risk of transfusion infection with HIV, hepatitis B and C stimulates the active implementation of the measures for increasing the safety of blood: the selection of donors, increasing the sensitivity of infections screening methods, inactivation of pathogens in blood components and transfusion management appointment at the clinic.
