Abstract

Introduction: Providing safe blood transfusion and blood derivates is of unique importance in contemporary medicine, taking into account that certain infections in the body are transmissible through the blood, its cell concentrates and plasma components. That is the reason why ascertainment of safe regulation for the way of taking the blood and its control is an important imperative and motive for preparation of this specialist’s work.Results: With all-embracing statistical analysis we succeeded to detect the most often infections which potentially can be transmitted to another body. The entire elaboration of the results of this work shows the percentage presence of HBsAg (1,32%), anti-HCV (0,45%), anti-HIV (0,003%) and Treponema pallidum (0,10%) at blood donor population of the determined transfusion transmissible diseases so far, vulnerable groups of blood donors (age, sex, predisposition to certain infections), the degree and efficiency of serological diagnostics applied in Regional Center for transfusion medicine in Shtip in the past 10 years and the way of prevention and additional education of people for spreading of transfusion transmissible diseases. Conclusion: These results (previously noted) indicate the needs of continuous serological diagnosis and obligatory testing of every blood unit with ELISA tests with high sensitivity and specificity, as well as undertaking of appropriate preventive measures with which the consequences of higher number of transfusion transmissible diseases will be reduced.
