Big +1 on not feeling drained or weird for a couple days after like I usually do with whole blood. With the WBC donations I do, it's just like the double RBC; they just extract what they want via machine and put the rest back in. The anticoagulant they use makes me sneeze, but it's not bad. And you can donate every other 10 days or so.

I give blood but haven't signed up for organ donation. If something happens to me my family can decide to do that. Kinda weirds me out to think about it.
I'm more than willing to donate while I'm like... alive and breathing though. Have you guys signed up for bone marrow? Marrow Signup |

My organs are my organs, if someone I know needs something and I'm compatible that's different. Otherwise I don't want anyone digging around inside me for parts

why did SJSU ban blood drives?
I used to donate blood at school when I was in college too. I never could in HS. Always played sports...

When you give blood you have to answer a set list of questions to determine if you are at a higher risk of having a disease. Because gay men have a higher risk of contracting aids, they aren't allowed to donate. Now, obviously, if the blood drive hated homosexuals then they wouldn't allow lesbians to donate either..... SJSU is dumb, California sucks

Bone marrow donation is a surgical procedure in which liquid marrow is withdrawn from the back of the donor's pelvic bones using special, hollow needles. General or regional anesthesia is always used for this procedure, so donors feel no needle injections and no pain during marrow donation. Most donors feel some pain in their lower back for a few days afterwards. |

They give free movie tickets if you donate blood to the big red bus when its on campus for my college. I think, its like that for all busses though.

I got Warped Tour tickets once. I think it depends on how they team up with the center.
Personally I'd be set if someone would just hold my book in front of my face while I'm donating. |

Donating bone marrow is a super awesome thing to do. I'm ineligible for two different medical reasons, boo. I can't donate blood either (borderline anemic; low blood pressure). Good thing I'm an organ donor, I guess, since apparently being dead is the only way I can be medically useful.

Also lists the new procedure under it: Peripheral blood cell (PBSC) donation involves removing a donor's blood through a sterile needle in one arm. The blood is passed through a machine that separates out the cells used in transplants. The remaining blood is returned through the other arm. see also: PBSC donation is a nonsurgical procedure that takes place at a blood center or outpatient hospital unit. For 5 days leading up to donation, you will be given injections of a drug called filgrastim to increase the number of blood-forming cells in your bloodstream. Your blood is then removed through a needle in one arm and passed through a machine that separates out the blood-forming cells. The remaining blood is returned to you through the other arm. Your blood-forming cells are back to their normal levels within 4 to 6 weeks |

They do about a million tests on the blood they draw so at worst, they will have to throw it out. In some states they pay the donor, but in FL that's not allowed. Just so you know, for every pint you donate, they make $3000 on it when they sell it to the sick guy.

Yep, take 'em all when I'm not here to use 'em. Eyes, heart (I have one!!), kidney, liver, pocket change etc.
Bone marrow and blood donor too. Have extra, give it away, just like my extra tomatoes and cucumbers. Family knows the deal and it's in my POA, living will and regular will. They'll be freaked out at the time so I don't want them to even have to think about it let alone decide. Got my fish taken care of too but who do I give my Ninja to? I'm not getting buried so I can't take it with me. Maybe get set on fire ON the ninja? That would be cool. |

I tried donating blood once and just could not see my own blood filling up a bag. Got all dizzy and had to stop. I can't even watch taking my blood for tests but I can watch them stitching me up or digging in my knee.
I'm an organ donor and have been my whole life. I also remind my wife when I go riding to not have my body parts wasted if something happens. Also I want the rest of my body donated to local medical school. Why waste fuel to burn it or labor to dig a hole. Let them slice me and dice me. Who knows, maybe some hot collage chick will play with my parts practicing vasectomy. |

Perhaps an incentive would work better than a punishment. Tax refund? Skip the lines at the DMV? All doctor's must bow to you?

But what I have a problem with is the fact that blood is in such drastic short supply (or so they keep saying) so they'll exclude an albeit minority, but a HUGE group of people (that I think Justin you'll agree is ****loads larger than anyone can be certain of knowing) on the risk that they may or may not carry a disease. Case in point - if they're screening processes are 100% accurate, why would it matter if even 99% of all people donating (for example) has contaminated blood? If they're screening process is 100% accurate then every last case of cantaminated blood would be caught and disposed of. Correct? So if blood was in such short supply and they need it as much as they say they do, why wouldn't you be begging anyone and everyone to donate? If their blood was contaminated, whether the donor knew it or not, it would be caught. In which case, no harm no foul. The only reasoning behind this that I can think of is that: A) It's a cost thing. And testing blood and disposing of contaminated blood is more expensive than storing and processing clean blood. Again, I can't see the cost as being that much more, and if this was the case they'd be putting a cost above the need for blood. Doesn't make sense. B) They can't be 100% sure that their screening processes are 100% accurate. In this case - um... SCARY!! If you were to ever be on the recieving end of a donors blood you'd wanna be bloody sure that the processes they use to screen blood are 10000000000% accurate, no? I've always wondered about this because I've always wanted to donate but I can't. I know many others in the same situation. Just seems sensless they don't tap that resource. Of course if anyone knows the reasoning behind it I'm open to it, but I just don't see how "we don't want youyr blood because there's a higher chance of contamination" computes, when their screening processes are advertised as being 100%. |

Interestingly enough the negative accuracy rate of that same test is 96% Meaning that 4% of blood samples tested come back as positive when really they are negative. They adopted this specific test because it has the highest positive accuracy rate. If someone who is negative, tests positive, well good news, we can always test you again. But if someone who is positive, tests negative, well most likely they won't be tested again. For this reason they strived for the highest positive accuracy rate possible. Now if you don't like these odds, I suggest you never be put into a situation that may cause you to need to receive blood (give up motorcycling and never leave your house ever again). Interesting article on the subject: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18827137.../#.Ttg0PoSRh8E

Oh really? Wow I had no idea it wasn't dead accurate that completely makes sense then...
So using those stats and this link (http://www.americasblood.org/go.cfm?do=page.view&pid=12) at least .2% of the 4.5 million people annually in America alone recieving or having recieved blood will receive an infected batch? Thats 9000 people. Annually. I'm not having a go either it just doesn't sound right. And if it is - no i'm not okay with those odds. But thats not saying that leaving the house will result in needing a blood transfusion either. I'm aware of the risks when leaving the house. |

Let's say for instance that in one year 1,000 people donate who have contracted the disease, have no idea that they have it, and are able to pass all of the other questions on the initial blood screening test. According to the statistics of the test, 998 people would get a positive result and be notified that they have the disease. 2 people would get a false negative and so long as there were no other diseases/infections in the blood, then it would be passed on. Now also take this into consideration. People who donate blood are likely to be compassionate people who probably have a better head on their shoulders than others, something that can be said of most people who make any sort of donations or volunteer. These types of people are more likely to be more responsible concerning safe sex. I'll also make a bet that people who are at a higher risk of contracting a disease i.e. drug addicts, one-night-standers that don't have safe sex, etc. probably are not heading down to the blood bank to donate. So I honestly doubt that anywhere close to 1000 people each year donate without knowing they have contracted the disease. Thus the spread of any disease through transfusions should be limited to very few, freak, occurances

I'm an idiot. The red cross blood donating trailer is at my work right now (duh)
Went down and asked them on my way to lunch. They said: (loosely quoted) "The screening is between 98.5 and 99.9% accurate. The blood is screened 6 times in Australia. It's done by a governing body unique to Australia so the process and amount of times it's initially screened may differ overseas. After the screening process has determined it isn't contaminated, it is stored. Once taken out of storage it is screened a further 4-8 times depending on the application. This is for testing for contamination, as well as to triple check blood type, and various other tests to ensure compatibility, again, depending on the application. So all up it is tested 10 times. 6 in a lab and at least 4 at the actual hospital. The accuracy stays the same so for a contaminated sample to get through it would need to be in the top 1.4 percentile, consistantly, 10 times. She said that statistically it is possible but in real world situations it isn't. She said if someone is infected by a blood transfusion anywhere in the world it is splashed across the news so you'd hear about it, because it just doesn't happen. She goes "it'd be like winning the unluckiest lottery in the world, 10 times over. It's extremely rare that it happens, but does occasionally". She also said the no fags rule, along with the recently tattooed and intravenous drug users rules, were established when the testing of blood wasn't as accurate or vigorous, and the only reason they're still enforced is because of the social sensivity surrounding using other people's blood. Didn't mean to hijack the thread - just something I just remembered I alwasy wondered about. |

First, what the heck is a 'paramedict'?
Second, as a Paramedic myself, I can tell you that the status of a persons donation has no relevance on anything that any emergency personnel (EMS, ER RN or ER Physician) do. I've partaken in the organ harvest process. A lot goes in to deciding what can / cannot be taken and it isn't a spur of the moment thing. For those scared that we will 'do less' when we notice someone is an organ donor, again, wrong. First and foremost, if it's ever found out we withheld something, it's our ass going to jail, and our license being lost. Second, there's no way to tell what is and is not viable without a surgeon cutting you open in the case of a traumatic death. If you were involved in an MVC ('accident') motorcycle or otherwise, and it caused enough damage to cause your death, chances are most of your organs are not usable due to things such as shock, multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and other things. Heck, many of the organs are probably "mush" anyhow. Third, if we DO think an organ might be viable, for some reason, we will actually try just as hard with CPR and such. Once the body dies and quits perfusing the organs, it's rather pointless anyhow, isn't it? New York City has been trialing an organ harvest ambulance. They don't do any actual harvest in the field, but get sent to cardiac arrests for people that are known donors, only AFTER a real ambulance has worked the arrest and decided to call it in the field and stop CPR. They speak with the family and if they are willing to donate still, the patient is put on an automatic CPR machine and transported to a surgical center for evaluation. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/01/nyregion/01organ.html To be scared that less will be done is a show of ignorance on your behalf, on how laws, ethics and the process truly are. Having said that, my license does not say I'm a donor, but my whole family knows I will donate upon death, and that I do not want to be a vegetable. The best thing for anyone to do is let your family know your wishes before hand. |

So how much does a said organ cost the recipient? I hear it's a ridiculous amount.
