The goal of this study was to screen donors for the frequency of ABO and Rh blood types, as well as the gender contribution to blood donation.
Subjects and Methods: From April 25th to November 5th, 2019, this retrospective observational study was conducted at the blood bank of Qazi Hussain Ahmed Medical Complex, Nowshera. The study enlisted the help of 279 people. The information was gathered from the blood bank of Qazi Hussain Ahmed Medical Complex Nowshera. The blood issuing form also contained information on donors and recipients. Antisera A, B, and D were used to agglutinate antisera A, B, and D for ABO and Rh blood grouping. SPSS Version 25 was used to analyse the data. For numerical variables like Hb percent and Ferritin, descriptive statistics were employed. For categorical characteristics like gender, frequency and percentages were employed. For recipient and donor gender groups, Spearman's correlation was applied.The overall number of donors was 279, with about 243 donors having haemoglobin on file. Hemoglobin levels in donors ranged from 11.59 g/dl to 1.48 g/dl on average. Hemoglobin levels in the receivers ranged from 8.19 g/dl to 1.72 g/dl on average. O+ (155, 55.6 percent), A+ (51, 18.3 percent), AB+ (23, 8.2 percent), B+ (22, 7.9 percent), O- & A- each (10, 3.6 percent), and B- &AB- each (10, 3.6 percent) were the most common blood groups in donors (4, 1.4 percent ). Rh positive blood group was found in 89.94 percent (251), while Rh negative blood group was found in 10.03 percent (28).Male donors made up 97.5 percent of the total donors, while female donors made up only 2.5 percent. There were 206 girls (73.8%) and 73 men (26.2%) among the beneficiaries. In the gender categories of the donors and receivers, Spearman's correlation data revealed a modest downward and inverse (negative) statistically significant association.
Conclusion: The frequencies of "Rh-positive blood groups" were (O, A, AB, and B). In our community, blood group "O" was identified as the primary Rh positive blood group in 55 percent of the donors. The male gender is the primary donor, whereas the female gender is the primary recipient.
