Cryoprecipitate utilisation, shortages and institutional policies in the United States: A survey of practices and policies

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Since the COVID‐19 pandemic, demand for blood products has remained high, while donations have declined. Institutional policies guiding the use of these products may affect their availability, utilisation and waste. We surveyed blood banks (BBs) in the United States (U.S.) to assess policies and practices related to cryoprecipitate ...

Optimising the workflow for infant ABO blood typing: The role of automated analyser and a manual reflex protocol

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives We aimed to optimise the infant ABO typing workflow by evaluating the performance of the ORTHO VISION analyser (VISION; QuidelOrtho, San Diego, CA, USA) and establishing a targeted manual reflex protocol. Background The application of automated analysers in infants poses challenges due to weak antigen and antibody expression ...

A retrospective analysis of the antigen‐negative red blood cell supply conducted at a single centre in China

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to analyse the distribution and demand patterns of antigen‐negative red blood cells (RBCs) in Shandong Province, China (2022–2024), with a focus on ABO blood groups and clinically significant antigens. The research was designed to provide rigorous data for advancing precision transfusion protocols and to establish a ...

Lipooligosaccharides (LOS) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis have components that are immunochemically similar to precursors of human blood group antigens. Carbohydrate sequence specificity of the mouse monoclonal antibodies that recognize crossreacting antigens on LOS and human erythrocytes. [PDF]

, 1988
We have used mouse mAbs, 3F11 and 06B4, that are specific for highly conserved epitopes of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lipooligosaccharides (LOS) to identify immunochemically similar structures on human erythrocytes. mAb 3F11 agglutinated erythrocytes from all

Early exposure, enduring consequences: How do I manage Rh immunoglobulin prophylaxis after Rh‐mismatched transfusions in children?

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background RhD mismatched transfusions in RhD negative women have the potential to impact future pregnancies through alloimmunization and development of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). As use of RhD positive emergency‐release blood products in pediatric trauma has increased, it has become clear that a significant ...

Association of ABO blood group and coronary heart disease in blood donors—Results from a cohort study in Australia

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background ABO blood groups may be associated with increased risk for several diseases including cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), particularly coronary heart disease (CHD). The role of other significant blood group systems, such as RhD and RhCE, has not been extensively investigated.

Deceased donor ABO discrepancy due to a rare AwB subgroup: Implications for organ allocation

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Accurate ABO determination is critical for safe deceased donor organ allocation. Weak or variant ABO subgroups may not be reliably detected by routine serologic testing, especially under urgent conditions or following transfusion. Such limitations can result in discrepant ABO assignments with potential implications for transplant ...

Multiple consecutive daily therapeutic plasma exchange using exclusively albumin replacement fluid in low bleeding risk patients is associated with only rare and mild bleeds

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) using exclusively albumin replacement fluid depletes coagulation factors, particularly fibrinogen, and concerns about performing multiple consecutive daily procedures due to iatrogenic bleeding exist. Fibrinogen testing to guide bleeding risk stratification is vague.

Revealing and quantifying polyclonal anti‐A, B specificity in ABO histo‐blood groups

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The clinically significant antibody anti‐A,B together with anti‐A and anti‐B has been known for many decades to be present in blood group O plasma. As anti‐A,B is only reactive when an A or B antigen is present, its contribution to titer cannot be easily distinguished from anti‐A and/or anti‐B.
