- Abstract
There is no routine testing of donor or final products for anti-A/-B. Question 4 There are no reported cases noted of haemolytic transfusion reactions due to platelets transfusion, we do have system in place to report and follow up for any transfusion reactions. Question 9 As anti-D prophylaxis is in use after D-positive PLT transfusion to RhD-negative patients, formation of anti-D after PLT transfusion has not been considered to be a major problem up to now. Question 9 As patients who need platelet transfusion are usually on chronic RBC support, any alloimmunization would be detected in pretransfusion testing. Eugene Zhiburt Question 1 We have apheresis (70%) and whole blood derived (buffy coat) (30%). Question 3 Although the transfusion of ABO identical PC is recommended by the Japanese guidelines, non-ABO-identical PC can be selected only in case there is need to prioritize HLA-matching for patients with platelet transfusion refractoriness.
