Motives and barriers to blood donation among adults aged over 50 years: A qualitative analysis

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ageing populations will increase demand for blood‐products and donors who supply them. While blood collection agencies (BCAs) typically target younger people to expand supply, recruiting donors aged 50+ is also a potential solution. However, few studies focus exclusively on this group.

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 ...

Prioritising parameters to minimise blood transfusions for postpartum haemorrhage: A machine learning study using national population data

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) accounts for approximately 27% of maternal deaths worldwide and often requires blood transfusion, along with its associated risks. In resource‐rich settings like South Korea, transfusion disparities persist, highlighting the need for predictive tools to optimise patient blood management (PBM).

Clinical implications of imlifidase interference in antibody screening and transfusion management

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Imlifidase has received conditional approval from the EMA for desensitizing deceased donor kidney transplant recipients. It works by cleaving IgG into F(ab′)2 and Fc fragments, thereby reducing the risk of antibody‐mediated rejection. However, its impact on diagnostic assays remains understudied. Case Report We present the case of a

Development and production of allogeneic cord blood‐derived red blood cell concentrates for transfusion to extremely preterm neonates, the All‐Cord study

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extremely preterm neonates often require red blood cell (RBC) transfusions derived from adult donors. These transfusions introduce adult hemoglobin into a neonatal hematopoietic system dominated by fetal hemoglobin (HbF), shifting the oxygen‐dissociation curve and increasing oxygen delivery to immature tissues.

Anaphylactic transfusion reaction to group B platelets related to alpha‐gal syndrome: A case report

Transfusion, EarlyView.
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.
