Abstract Background Umbilical cord blood (UCB) is a rich source of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells for regenerative medicine. This study characterized the cellular composition of UCB from twin pregnancies to identify blood type concordance (BTC)‐related differences.

Abstract Background Field transfusion of whole blood is vital for patients in hemorrhagic shock, particularly in austere or resource‐limited environments. Military use of warm fresh whole blood (WFWB) has inspired civilian interest in walking blood banks (WBBs) for rural, prehospital, and mass casualty settings where blood product access is limited ...

Genetic diversity in RHD and RHCE genes among a selected Kenyan blood donor population
Abstract Background Serologic typing for ABO and RhD is standard in transfusion services, with extended serology and genotyping performed to reduce red cell alloimmunization risk. In Kenya, RH typing is limited to RhD, and genotyping is unavailable. This study used RHD/RHCE genotyping to predict phenotypes and their distribution in a Kenyan blood donor

Abstract Background A minority of blood donors are Rh(D)‐negative, and Rh(D)‐negative red blood cell (RBC) products are often overutilized. As such, Rh(D)‐negative RBCs may be difficult to maintain in blood bank inventory. Study Design and Methods We changed our blood bank laboratory policy to approve non‐alloimmunized Rh(D)‐negative patients to ...

Anaphylactic transfusion reaction to group B platelets related to alpha‐gal syndrome: A case report
Abstract Background Alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS), a distinct form of IgE‐mediated hypersensitivity to the carbohydrate galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (α‐Gal), typically occurs after repeated tick bites and leads to allergic reactions after ingestion of mammalian meat.

Abstract Background ABO‐incompatible (ABOi) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is often associated with ABO discrepancies post‐HSCT. Re‐emergence of the patient's original type post‐HSCT may signal graft loss, disease relapse, recent transfusion, or soluble ABO antigen.

Abstract Background Substituting group A whole blood (GAWB) might relieve some of the burden on the low titer group O whole blood (LTOWB) inventory. This simulation examined the effect of implementing GAWB at a large trauma hospital. Study Design and Methods A civilian trauma center with LTOWB and GAWB par levels set to 22 and 10 units, respectively ...
