The association between blood donation and demographic and socio\u2010economic factors was assessed using multiple logistic regression analysis.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Overall, 73 participants (17\u00b72%; 95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n : 13\u00b76\u201320\u00b78) reported having donated blood previously. Of the total sample, 2\u00b74% (95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n : 0\u00b79\u20133\u00b78) reported having given blood in Australia; 12\u00b79% (95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n : 9\u00b77\u201316\u00b71) had given blood prior to migration to Australia (i.e. country of birth or transition); and 1\u00b79% (95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n : 0\u00b76\u20133\u00b72) indicated they had given blood in an unspecified country. In the univariate model, age, country of birth, blood donation knowledge, religion, educational attainment, migration and employment status were all associated with blood donation status. However, in the multivariate model, only age >45\u00a0years (odds ratio [\n OR<\/jats:styled-content>\n ] 5\u00b772; 95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n 2\u00b711\u201315\u00b746), African region of origin (\n OR<\/jats:styled-content>\n 15\u00b789; 95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n 3\u00b789\u201365) and blood donation knowledge (\n OR<\/jats:styled-content>\n 4\u00b746; 95%\n CI<\/jats:styled-content>\n 1\u00b757\u201312\u00b77) were associated with blood donation.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n In order to increase the number of blood donors among African migrants, promoting knowledge and awareness of issues associated with blood donation in Australia should be emphasized. Consideration should be given to identifying these potential migrant donors to improve the availability of compatible blood for patients of African descent.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vox.12091","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,10,11]],"date-time":"2013-10-11T22:05:27Z","timestamp":1381529127000},"page":"137-143","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Blood donation by\n A<\/scp>\n frican migrants and refugees in\n A<\/scp>\n ustralia: the role of demographic and socio\u2010economic factors"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"106","author":[{"given":"Z.","family":"McQuilten","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine Monash University Melbourne Vic.
