Drug Regulators, FDA, Publish Recommendations for Management of Donor at Increased Risk of HIV-1 infection.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), are providing the, blood and plasma establishments, with a revised list of countries that should be included in questions for identifying donors at increased risk for HIV-1 group O infection. They are also providing recommendations for discontinuing the use of some questions used to identify these donors and for management of donors previously deferred. This guidance supersedes the memorandum entitled “Interim Recommendations for Deferral of Donors at Increased Risk for HIV-1 Group O Infection,” dated December 11, 1996 (Ref. 1). That memorandum contained interim measures to reduce the risk of HIV-1 group O transmission by blood and blood products pending licensure of test kits specifically labeled for detection of antibodies to HIV-1 group O viruses. Now that an FDA-licensed test for detection of antibodies to HIV-1 group O viruses is available, those interim recommendations are no longer current.
