The study aims to evaluate hematological parameters of Hepatitis B-negative blood donors in Nigeria to enhance transfusion safety.
Evaluated hematological parameters like hematocrit, D-dimer, platelet count, and leukocyte count in blood donors.
Conducted at a Nigerian University Teaching Hospital with a focus on transfusion safety and associated infections.
Recommended improvements in donor education and blood donation policies.
Mean platelet count, leukocyte count, and D-dimer level were within normal ranges.
Mean hemocrit was slightly lower than the normal reference range.
Findings align with previous studies on hematological parameters in healthy blood donors.
