Contraindications to donation

Almost any healthy person can become a donor, if he is over 18 years old, has no contraindications to donation, and his weight is more than 50 kg.

On the other hand, only a Man with a capital letter can become a donor of blood and its components. A person who is ready to get up early, spend his time to save someone's life.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Prior to the procedure, a potential donor undergoes a free medical examination, which includes receiving by a transfusiologist and a preliminary laboratory test.

At the same time, there are a number of contraindications to donation: absolute, that is, independent of the duration of the disease and the results of treatment, and temporary - only a certain period of time.

Absolute contraindications are the presence of such serious diseases as HIV infection, syphilis, viral hepatitis, tuberculosis, blood diseases, oncological diseases and others.

Perhaps you will be disappointed that you will not be able to make donation in the presence of absolute contraindications.
However, the Blood Service hopes that you will understand our main task - ensuring the safety of blood donor components for patients.

The presence of contraindications to donation does not mean that you can not contribute to the development of voluntary blood donation!
In the section «Volunteers» you can learn how to help the Donor Movement. Save lives with the Blood Service!

The most common prohibitions are: tooth extraction (10 days), tattooing, piercing or acupuncture treatment (1 year), sore throat, flu, SARS (1 month after recovery), menstruation (5 days after graduation), abortion (6 months ), the period of pregnancy and lactation (1 year after childbirth, 3 months after the end of lactation), vaccinations.
