First‐time red blood cell transfusions in the emergency department: A deficiency in micronutrient testing

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To evaluate laboratory investigations for micronutrient deficiencies as the cause of anaemia prior to first‐time red blood cell transfusions in the medical emergency department (ED) of a large academic hospital. Background The ED is often the first point of contact for acutely ill anaemic patients, yet patient blood management ...

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 ...

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

Clinical application of a modified platelet desialylation test for mechanistic characterization of platelet transfusion refractoriness

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) is a major challenge in transfusion medicine and may result from both immune and non‐immune mechanisms. Although alloantibodies are well‐established contributors, Fc‐independent pathways such as platelet desialylation have emerged as alternative mechanisms of clearance.

Red cell alloimmunization in multitransfused hepatobiliary patients at hospital Selayang

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science
BACKGROUND: Transfusion support is vital for the management of patients with hepatobiliary disease. Repeated blood transfusions increase the risk of alloimmunization, i.e., the development of alloantibodies, which might lead to difficulties in blood ...

BLOOD GROUPS AND TYPING IN DOGS AND CATS, CROSSMATCHING PROCEDURE IN DOMESTIC ANIMALS PHYSIOLOGY EDUCATION

, 2023
The safe administration of the blood products in transfusion medicine requires precautionary measures i.e. blood typing and crossmatching between donor and recipient. Regarding this, teaching staff of the Department of Physiology and Radiobiology and Clinic for Internal Diseases of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Zagreb decided that ...

International multicentre evaluation of a new anti‐idiotypic anti‐daratumumab for resolving pre‐transfusion interferences

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Daratumumab, a therapeutic human anti‐CD38 monoclonal antibody, improves multiple myeloma outcomes but interferes with pre‐transfusion testing by binding CD38 on reagent red blood cells (RBCs), potentially masking clinically significant alloantibodies.
