To assess the awareness and attitudes related to blood transfusion safety among blood donors from the Autonomous Province (AP) Vojvodina, Republic of Serbia.
Blood donors are at the initial point of safe blood transfusion systems. The active participation of blood donors in the selection process contributes to increasing the safety of blood transfusions and reduces potential risks for the recipients.
This cross-sectional survey included 1191 blood donors from AP Vojvodina. The awareness and attitudes regarding safe blood supply were measured as 5-point scales of agreement/disagreement with statements on a Likert scale. The data were analysed using non-parametric methods by frequency modalities.
Male blood donors, the youngest age group (18-20 years), those who donate blood for the first time and those with a lower educational level showed the lowest awareness of, and the most negative attitudes about, blood safety.
The study found that there is a small but, for the safety of transfusion, significant number of blood donors who do not have a positive attitude or awareness of their own impact on safe transfusion therapy and who are not discovered during standard selection procedures.
评估塞尔维亚共和国伏伊伏丁那自治省献血者对输血安全的认知和态度。
献血者处于安全输血系统的起始点。献血者在筛选过程中的积极参与有助于提高输血安全性，并降低受血者的潜在风险。
这项横断面调查纳入了来自伏伊伏丁那自治省的1191名献血者。关于安全血液供应的认知和态度通过对李克特量表上陈述的同意/不同意程度以5分制进行衡量。数据采用非参数方法按频率模式进行分析。
男性献血者、最年轻年龄组（18 - 20岁）、首次献血者以及教育水平较低者对血液安全的认知最低，态度也最为消极。
研究发现，存在一小部分但对于输血安全而言数量可观的献血者，他们对自身在安全输血治疗中的影响没有积极的态度或认知，并且在标准筛选程序中未被发现。
