Abstract

|
|
In an effort to improve the blood safety management system, Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention visited the national agencies and blood centers of foreign countries. In Japan, the management system for Human T-lymphotropic virus positive donors is operated. In Germany, Red Cross Blood Centers provide 75∼80% of national blood consumption, and hospital blood centers provided 15∼20%. In addition, the Paul Ehrlich Institut is engaged in blood center management and blood product safety, and the Robert Koch Institut manages transfusion-transmitted infection. The standard temperature of RBC transport is 1∼10oC. In Austria, haemovigilance is operated by the National Blood Authority and adverse reactions following transfusion are investigated by Blood Centers. In Britain, blood is provided by National Health Service Blood and Transplant, and the Serious Hazards of Transfusion, haemovigilance system is operated. Universal leukoreduction has been performed since 1999 in order to prevent transmission of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
