Abstract

Objective: Identify the most predominant adverse reactions to blood donation. Method: Integrative bibliographic review, with scientific articles indexed in the PUBMED and LILACS databases through the descriptors: "adverse effects" and "blood donors". Use the Boolean operators "and" and "or". The studies rescued were those published between 2013 and 2018. The study was carried out from March to May 2018. Results: 119 articles were found through the searches in the databases, leaving 13 articles for reading in full, being included only 4 from the gray literature by relation to the topic. There was a low occurrence of adverse reactions concerning the proportion of donors. Mild adverse reactions are predominant, followed by moderate and severe reactions. Conclusions: Knowing the signs and symptoms of adverse events will provide the development of a management strategy to control an adverse reaction to blood donation.
