Abstract
Temporarily deferred donors are a forgotten pool of potential blood source. When dealt appropriately, they can easily be inducted back to the main stream pool of voluntary donors. Although there are multiple studies from India on the deferral rates and patterns; not much has been done with respect to the follow up of these donors and active efforts to bring them back to donate blood. In this narrative review, we discuss the impact of temporary deferral, factors affecting the return and appropriate strategies to improve the return rate of these donors.
