Background And Objectives: In France, blood donation deferral for men who have sex with men (MSM) was reduced from permanent to 12 months in July 2016. Assessing noncompliance (rate and reasons) with this criterion is important to maintain a high level of viral safety in blood products.
Materials And Methods: An anonymous online survey (Complidon) of a sample of blood donors was conducted in 2017.
Background: Blood donor selection, consisting of a pre-donation questionnaire and interview, excludes potential donors who may be at risk of transfusion-transmissible infections. Assessing the reasons for noncompliance with blood donor selection criteria is important to maintain a high level of viral safety of blood products.
Study Design And Methods: An anonymous French online survey of a sample of blood donors (Complidon) was conducted from September to December 2017.
