A radiolabeled antiglobulin test for crossmatching platelet transfusions.
Despite the use of HLA-matched platelets for alloimmunized recipients, transfusion failures occur. In order to reduce these failures, we investigated the use of a radiolabeled antiglobulin technique for platelet crossmatching. The principle of the test is that of an indirect Coombs test using 125I labeled goat anti-human IgG. Incompatibility is determined by calculating a radioactivity antiglob...
متن کاملAn evaluation of crossmatching, HLA, and ABO matching for platelet transfusions to refractory patients.
Refractoriness occurs in many patients receiving multiple platelet transfusions. We used a sensitive ELISA assay to assess the utility of crossmatching HLA-A,B matched single donor platelets in 51 consecutive, typical refractory patients. Of the 222 transfusions evaluated at 1 to 4 hours posttransfusion, only 17 of 54 (31%) with positive crossmatches had corrected platelet count increments of g...
متن کاملA specific assay for anti-HLA antibodies: application to platelet donor selection.
Alloimmunization to donor class I HLA antigens represents a major obstacle to successful platelet transfusion therapy. It is desirable to distinguish alloimmunization from nonimmunologic causes of poor platelet survival to assess the need for HLA-matched, single-donor platelets. We describe a new in vitro assay for anti-HLA antibodies and report its application to the problem of platelet crossm...
متن کاملTransfusion Medicine 2 Platelet transfusions
Ever since platelet transfusions were shown to reduce mortality from haemorrhage in patients with acute leukaemia in the 1950s, the use of this therapy has steadily grown to become an essential part of the treatment of cancer, haematological malignancies, marrow failure, and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Today, more than 1·5 million platelet products are transfused in the USA each y...
