What is the best approach to blood transfusion in sickle cell disease? A scientometric analysis and literature review

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Blood transfusion remains a cornerstone in the management of sickle cell disease (SCD); however, it is frequently complicated by red cell alloimmunisation. A significant debate persists within the scientific community regarding the optimal strategy to mitigate this risk: the traditional, pragmatic approach of serologic phenotyping ...

An audit of platelet transfusions at a tertiary care center: New opportunities for patient blood management with the 2025 AABB/ICTMG platelet guidelines

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Platelet transfusions are an important tool to prevent and stop bleeding. Thresholds for pretransfusion platelet counts have been studied in various patient populations, yielding evidence‐based guidelines. The Association for the Advancement of Blood and Biotherapies (AABB) collaborated with the International Collaboration for ...

Cost‐effectiveness of a hypothetical assay to evaluate stored blood quality prior to transfusion

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Unsuccessful red blood cell (RBC) transfusion, necessitating unscheduled repeat transfusion, is common and costly. Several technologies have been developed to assess stored blood quality, but the potential cost‐effectiveness of pretransfusion testing versus no testing to prevent unscheduled re‐transfusion is unknown ...
