Nonhemolytic Febrile Transfusion Reactions

Vox Sanguinis, 1966
SummaryThe conditions under which nonhemolytic febrile transfusion reactions developed in eight afebrile patients were investigated. Recipients invariably developed a reaction on transfusion of incompatible white cells if a sufficient quantity of leukocytes was infused. The sensitivity of each patient differed with respect to the number of incompatible

Universal leukoreduction decreases the incidence of febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reactions to RBCs

Transfusion, 2004
BACKGROUND:  Febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTR) is a relatively common complication associated with allogeneic transfusion. Because WBCs have been implicated in the mechanism of FNHTRs, it has been proposed that the transfusion of leukoreduced RBCs should be associated with a decreased incidence of FNHTRs.

Febrile, Nonhemolytic Transfusion Reactions and the Limited Role of Leukoagglutinins in Their Etiology

Transfusion, 1962
In more than ten thousand transfusions given over a four‐year period to 1,649 patients, the incidence of urticarial reactions was 1.1 per cent. There were no hemolytic transfusion reactions and none due to bacterial contamination or to bacterial pyrogens.

Febrile Nonhemolytic Transfusion Reactions

Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing, 2002
A. FNHTRs are reported in 0.5%–5% of all transfusions. B. FNHTRs are the most common complication of platelet transfusion. 1. Incidence ranges from 1.7% to 31%. 2. Higher incidences are seen in patients who have received multiple prior transfusions. C. Incidence may decrease with increased use of prestorage leukocytereduced blood products. D.

Accumulated cytokines in stored autologous blood do not cause febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reactions

Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2008
Accumulated inflammatory cytokines are considered to be a cause of febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTRs) of platelet transfusions. Inflammatory cytokines have been found in red cell components stored at 4 degrees C; however, their relationship to FNHTRs has not been clearly demonstrated following red cell transfusions.
