Maxime Dely Suggested New Algorithm to Choose Blood Donor
Maxime Dely, Sales and Application Specialist in Therapeutic Apheresis and Cell Therapy, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“What if blood transfusion was… Tinder?
Today, algorithms shape almost everything: the music we listen to, the routes we take… and even the people we meet.
So why not push the analogy all the way to blood transfusion?
Just like on Tinder, everything starts with a matchmaking process: on one side a donor, on the other a patient. The goal? Finding the perfect match.
And in both cases… you’d rather avoid a bad date.
Except in medicine, the algorithm is far more demanding:
ABO blood group typing,
Rh factor,
Crossmatching,
Antibody screening,
Verification of immunological compatibility…
A scientific “swipe” ensuring no immune reaction ruins the meeting between these two profiles.
When everything aligns, we get the key moment:
It’s a match!
No pink animation, but a compatibility that can stabilize, treat, or save a life.
In the end, Tinder or transfusion—it’s the same logic:
- Find the right connection,
- Avoid incompatibilities,
- Make sure the match actually works.
And maybe the most meaningful match of all… is the one created when you donate blood.”
