Red blood cells stored in anticoagulant versus additive solution for large volume transfusions in pediatric patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 1721-1726, September 2026.
Abstract Background The safety of red blood cells (RBCs) in additive solutions (AS) for large‐volume transfusion (LVT) in pediatrics remains understudied. This study examines the laboratory and clinical impact of CPD‐stored products versus CP2D/AS‐3 products in pediatric patients receiving LVT during cardiac surgery.

Venous and arterial thrombosis following extracorporeal photopheresis: A descriptive cohort study using a federated electronic health record network

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 1737-1746, September 2026.
Abstract Background In 2018, the FDA reported VTE events in patients undergoing ECP, but these reports lacked a population‐level denominator to contextualize the risk against the known baseline thrombotic burden of the underlying conditions. Study Design and Methods We conducted a descriptive retrospective cohort study using the TriNetX federated EHR ...

IrregulAB: An open‐source rule‐based engine for automated red cell antibody panel interpretation

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 1758-1767, September 2026.
Abstract Background Interpretation of antibody identification panels remains a manual, expertise‐intensive step in transfusion testing; interpretive errors and long turnaround times persist even in well‐equipped hospitals. Existing commercial software is closed source and often omits enzyme‐phase, cold‐phase, and dosage‐sensitive exclusion rules ...

A ferritin prediction model to determine individual blood donation frequencies

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 1768-1776, September 2026.
Abstract Background Ferritin‐guided donation intervals are effective in reducing iron deficiency and low hemoglobin rates. However, many donors still present with low ferritin levels after multiple donations, which results in less donor availability. Model predictions of ferritin levels can help in setting donation frequencies that, proactively, keep ...

An international study on emerging arboviral infections and blood safety

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 1786-1799, September 2026.
Abstract Background Emerging and re‐emerging arboviral infections are a risk to blood safety. We conducted an international survey on how blood establishments respond to current and future arbovirus threats. Study Design and Methods A questionnaire on arbovirus donor deferral strategies, pathogen reduction, and donation screening was distributed to ...

Chagas disease in Canadian blood donors: 15 years of selective testing

Vox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 9, Page 1347-1355, September 2026.
Abstract Background and Objectives Chagas disease (Trypanosoma cruzi), prevalent in Mexico, Central and South America, can be transfusion‐transmitted. Selective serological testing of blood donors was implemented over 15 years ago. We describe the trends in infections and characteristics of donors selected for testing.

Impact of a national donor vigilance system: An example of improved donor health by reduction of delayed bleedings after donor plasmapheresis

Vox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 9, Page 1425-1429, September 2026.
Abstract Background and Objectives In Denmark, all blood banks use the same standardized donor vigilance system, enabling comparisons of adverse reactions across the country's five regions. At several collection sites, a compression bandage is applied over the venipuncture site after donation.

Barriers and enablers to non‐remunerated plasma donation: A meta‐synthesis of the qualitative literature using the theoretical domains framework

Vox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 9, Page 1290-1300, September 2026.
Abstract Background and Objectives Plasma is an essential component of therapies used to treat immune deficiencies, coagulation disorders and other serious conditions. Despite increasing global demand, many countries, including Canada, remain dependent on imported plasma products.
