Summary:Post donation information management is a fundamental axis of haemovigilance in terms of blood safety. It requires an organization ensuring a permanent reactivity, a good sensitization of French National Blood Service professionals and needs also a strong awareness of blood donors. Previous identification of stakeholders to warn during these kinds of alerts is essential to avoid the use of any blood product presenting a potential risk. The recent implementation of a consensual internal document aims to target the reinforcement of a homogeneous decision-making process, combining blood product self-sufficiency and above all recipient safety.
