Removing the current practice for refrigerated (2\u20138\u00b0C) storage and aligning with room temperature (20\u201324\u00b0C) storage of other donor blood samples would produce significant efficiencies in blood donor centres. This study aimed to compare full blood count results under two temperature conditions.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Paired full blood count samples were collected from 250 whole blood or plasma donors. These were stored either refrigerated or room temperature for testing on arrival at the processing centre and the following day. The primary outcomes of interest included differences between mean cell volume, haematocrit, platelet count, white cell and differential counts, and the need to produce blood films, based on existing Lifeblood criteria.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A statistically significant (<jats:italic>p\u2009&lt;\u20090.<\/jats:italic>05) difference for most full blood count parameters results was found between the two temperature conditions. The number of blood films required was similar under each temperature condition.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The clinical significance of the small numerical differences in results is considered minimal. Furthermore, the number of blood films required remained similar under either temperature condition. Given the significant reductions in time, processing and costs associated with room temperature over refrigerated processing, we recommend a further pilot study to monitor the broader impacts, with the intent to implement national storage of full blood count samples at room temperature within Lifeblood.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/tme.12962","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,2]],"date-time":"2023-03-02T09:59:07Z","timestamp":1677751147000},"page":"221-226","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Evaluation
