A twistling donation experience

Shi Yu, born on November 11, 1999, is a white angel and is currently working in Bai Sha Shenglian Medical Cosmetic Clinic, Jiangbei.

On September 6, 2018, the Miao girl accidentally saw the propaganda information of donation of hematopoietic stem cells in Tianmen Vocational College who was studying at the time, so she germinated the idea of ​​helping others and saving patients' lives, leaving 10 ml of blood samples, joining China to China The hematopoietic stem cell database is waiting for pairing.

After graduating, Shi Yu came to Ningbo to work and became a nurse. Four months ago, she received a call from the staff of the Red Cross of Jiangbei District to ask if she was willing to donate hematopoietic stem cells. On the phone, she agreed immediately.

In order to adjust her body to the best state, she pays great attention to nutrition and strengthen exercise. However, the donation was gone. After waiting for a month, she took the initiative to contact the staff of the Red Cross. It turned out that the patient found a more suitable donor. Although he did not donate successfully, he thought that the stranger who was tortured might recover better, and Shi Yu was also happy for the other party.

I thought it had passed like this, but not long, Shi Yu received a call again. She learned that the original donor did not donate success due to various reasons, and the opportunity to save others' lives fell on her head again.

"I am willing, I will never regret it!" The young Hunan girl told the staff of the Red Cross of Jiangbei District on the phone.

On August 19, Shi Yu successfully passed the four links: the initial screening, the re -mobilization of consultation, the high -resolution test, and the pre -donation medical examination. He successfully matched HLA genes with a 36 -year -old acute lymphocyte leukemia patient in other provinces and met the conditions for donation.

In the early morning of September 2nd, Shi Yu came to the blood department of Ningbo First Hospital for injection before donation. The next day, due to the backache of the mobilized agent, the girl couldn't help sending a circle of friends, but gained a full screen like and blessing.

Her parents who are far away in her hometown have supported her daughter's decision after a comprehensive understanding of the donation of hematopoietic stem cells, and also supported her daughter's decision, and told her to take care of herself and pay attention to rest.

Within 9 am on September 6, Shi Yu started collecting hematopoietic stem cells. Two hours later, the collection was completed, and 213 ml of hematopoietic stem cell suspension was immediately sent to the hospital where the patient was located. If you go smoothly, you will be infused in the patient that night, let the "life seeds" germinate, and reshape the new life.

The city has 15,000 volunteers with hematopoietic stem cells registered in the warehouse

It is understood that Shi Yu is the 12th case of Jiangbei District, 139 cases in Ningbo City, and 825 donors of blood stem cells in Zhejiang Province.

The donation of hematopoietic stem cells in Ningbo has begun since 2003, and has continued to increase in volunteers and donors in the library in 19 years. At present, the city has 15,000 volunteers with hematopoietic stem cells registered in the warehouse.

Although more and more Ningbo's caring citizens have joined the ranks of hematopoietic stem cell donations in recent years, an indisputable fact is that "the existing donation is far from meeting the needs of patients," said the staff of the Ningbo Red Cross Society. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is one of the most effective means to save patients such as leukemia.

Due to the low success rate of hematopoietic stem cells, only the number of volunteers donated by hematopoietic stem cells to the warehouse can increase the opportunity of patients to get "life seeds".

Behind the number of donors and the number of volunteers in the library, there is a great reason that the public's understanding of this caring cause is not enough. "Many people think that‘ donating bone marrow ’requires‘ knocking bone and absorbing '. It is very painful. In fact, hematopoietic stem cell collection can be collected from the blood vein blood of the arm, which is not damaged. "Said the staff of the Ningbo Red Cross.

Is the donation of hematopoietic stem cells hurting the body?According to Sheng Lixia, a hematology expert in Ningbo No. 1 Hospital, hematopoietic stem cells mainly exist in the bone marrow. By injecting mobilization agents in advance, the hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow blood are mobilized to the outer peripheral blood, and the whole blood is collected from the vein of the arm.EssenceThe collected blood extracts hematopoietic stem cells through blood cell separators, while other blood components return to donors.As of now, data in the world's short -term (about 20 years) show that the injection of hematopoietic stem cell mobilization agents have not found adverse effects on healthy people. These adverse effects include incidence of cancer incidence or early bone marrow regeneration.Reporter Lu Qiwen Correspondent Hu Lin
