A solution for preserving red blood cells (adenine) will make it possible to extend the life of blood from 21 to 35 days. Adenine supplementation may bring dramatic changes in blood outdating and the supply of blood to hospital blood banks. Substantial improvements, however, can be realized only if blood administrators are able to estimate the potential effects of adenine supplementation and set goals based on these projections. Appropriate action could then be taken to reduce blood collection and increase the supply of blood to hospitals. This paper offers a method for blood administrators to estimate the full effects of adenine supplementation and set reasonably attainable goals. Experiences with setting goals for a mid-western U.S. blood region are then discussed.
一种保存红细胞的溶液（腺嘌呤）能够将血液的保存期限从21天延长至35天。补充腺嘌呤可能会给血液过期时间以及医院血库的血液供应带来巨大变化。然而，只有当血液管理人员能够估算补充腺嘌呤的潜在影响并基于这些预测设定目标时，才能实现实质性的改善。然后可以采取适当行动减少采血并增加医院的血液供应。本文为血液管理人员提供了一种估算补充腺嘌呤的全面影响并设定合理可及目标的方法。随后讨论了为美国中西部一个血液区域设定目标的经验。
