简要总结
Blood donations are an important need worldwide. In Peru, only 10% of donations are voluntary, of which only a quarter are repeat donors. Repeat donations are crucial to maintaining a safe and adequate blood supply.
Social media presents a unique opportunity to promote blood donation, because of its increasing use and its prior successes in promoting positive health-related behaviors .
The present study aims to develop and evaluate a social media intervention - Facebook and WhatsApp - to improve communication and promote repeat blood donations in voluntary first-time donors attending donation campaigns organized by the Hospital Nacional Cayetano Heredia (HCH).
