Cross sectional Observative study conducted over a period of 3 consecutive year from Jun2012 to May 2015, which included 4082 donors with 3096 voluntary donors and 986 replacement donors. Under aseptic condition, 5ml of venous blood was collected immediately after taking donor consent. Statistical analysis was performed with chi-square and Fisher’s exact test. Seroprevalence of HIV, HBV, HCV and syphilis was 0.22%, 9.95%, 0.07% and 0.12% respectively. Our study reported increased prevalence of transfusion transmitted diseases among replacement donor and also in the age group of 18-29yr. so it is very important to educate and create full awareness among young individual about prevention of this transmitted diseases.
