Impact of a national donor vigilance system: An example of improved donor health by reduction of delayed bleedings after donor plasmapheresis.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesIn Denmark, all blood banks use the same standardized donor vigilance system, enabling comparisons of adverse reactions across the country's five regions. At several collection sites, a compression bandage is applied over the venipuncture site after donation. In this study, we investigate whether using a compression bandage is more effective than using a non-compression bandage in preventing delayed bleeding. MATERIALS AND
methodsData were collected from four of the Danish regions (data from the fifth region were incomplete) between 2021 and 2024 using the Danish donor vigilance system. In one region, compression bandage has been used consistently since 2021, whereas three other regions transitioned from non-compression bandages to compression bandages at different times during the study period.
resultsData from 426,250 donor plasmaphereses were analysed; 160,547 (37.7%) were collected without the compression bandage and 265,703 (62.3%) were collected with the bandage. A significantly lower number of delayed bleeding events occurred when the bandage was applied post-donation (0.3% vs. 0.04%, respectively, p < 0.001).
conclusionThe implementation of the compression bandage resulted in a significant decrease in delayed bleeding in Danish plasma donors. Using a compression bandage may be an easy and cost-efficient way to improve donation safety.
