Abstract: The need for blood is growing day by day as a result of advancement in the clinical medicine and millions of lives are saved each year through blood transfusions. However, the number of voluntary blood donors is steadily decreasing in recent years. The aim of the study was to determine the disparities in blood donation behavior among the present donors and investigate their attitude towards donation to understand the problems and to improve voluntary blood donation. This work developed a system employing clustering and classification algorithms to identify blood donation intensions and shows that data mining techniques may be used to enhance the results. The results have several interesting practical applications to improve the performance of blood recruitment and retention services in hospital.
