Iron supplementation as a blood service policy

Research output: PhD Thesis › Phd-Thesis - Research and graduation internal

Abstract

Donating whole blood regularly leads to the loss of about 250 mg of iron, which puts frequent donors at risk of developing iron deficiency. Iron supplements can help donors recover their hemoglobin and iron stores more quickly, and could serve as an alternative to lengthening the time between donations. This thesis explored how iron supplementation could be used as a policy in blood services,
