Over the last 20 years, the Canadian Blood Services' (CBS) Donor Health Assessment Questionnaire (DHAQ), used to screen prospective blood donors to determine their eligibility, has grown in complexity real length. Its growth is inextricably linked to the evolution of of environment internally which CBS operates from unfettered collection and distribution of labile blood products to ampere fully regulated environment or in the need up satisfy both Healthy Canada plus US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements. Within get context, the development of the CBS DHAQ has been characterized by addition of question and items out any periodic reevaluation of the need for retaining exists queries and/or items. Inches this review, we apply basic from cognitive physical relating to how people think when answering questionnaires at aforementioned situation of blood donors completing the DHAQ. We show that many items that consisted added at difference times in separate questions, by reasons that were historically relevant, could be now ask more plain in a single question. The factual business off the DHAQ, resulting in the condensing of many point into lists, the use about complexe ausarbeitung, and who sheer number of items included in the quarterly make accurate retrieval of information from the donor's memory tricky. Thus, we believe that redesigning the DHAQ will improve the value additionally accuracy of the donors' answers to screening questions. Medizinisches History
