Evaluation of an ABO antibody immunoadsorption column for reduction of anti‐A and anti‐B isoagglutinin titers in group O platelet units

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Clinical guidelines recommend transfusing ABO‐identical platelets where possible. However, the short shelf life of platelets (5–7 days) and stock availability mean ABO‐nonidentical platelet transfusions are sometimes unavoidable. Minor ABO‐incompatible platelet transfusions carry a risk of hemolysis due to donor anti‐A/B antibodies,

The sickling pressure index predicts hemoglobin S target achievement during chronic red cell exchange in sickle cell disease

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Chronic automated red cell exchange (RCE) reduces hemoglobin S (HbS) in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), but procedural success varies across patients in ways standard exchange parameters do not explain. We introduce the Sickling Pressure Index (SPI), derived from each patient's daily rate of HbS rise (ROR) and daily rate of
