Molecular RHD screening of RhD negative donors can replace standard serological testing for RhD negative donors.
This work aims to assess the value of a generalized molecular RHD screening strategy which could replace routine serological screening of weak D by indirect antiglobulin test. Three independent studies were performed at the two Blood Transfusion Services Berne and Zurich. Donors investigated were 652 RhD negative, but RhC and/or RhE positive, 17,391 mainly Rhccee, and 8200 with normal RhCcEe ph...
متن کاملCervical cancer awareness and screening in Botswana.
OBJECTIVE Cervical cancer remains a leading cause of death in many developing countries because limited screening by Papanicolaou (Pap) smear. We sought to better understand women's beliefs about cervical cancer and screening in Botswana, a middle-income African country with high rates of cervical cancer. METHODS We interviewed 289 women attending general medicine or human immunodeficiency vi...
متن کاملImplementation of a mandatory donor RHD screening in Switzerland.
Starting in 2013, blood donors must be tested at least using: (1) one monoclonal anti-D and one anti-CDE (alternatively full RhCcEe phenotyping), and (2) all RhD negative donors must be tested for RHD exons 5 and 10 plus one further exonic, or intronic RHD specificity, according to the guidelines of the Blood Transfusion Service of the Swiss Red Cross (BTS SRC). In 2012 an adequate stock of RHD...
متن کامل[Guideline for prevention of RhD alloimmunization in RhD negative women].
Events following which anti-D immunoglobulin should be given to all RhD negative women with no anti-D antibodies: First trimester indications (50 microg)--termination of pregnancy, spontaneous abortion followed by instrumentation, ectopic pregnancy, chorionic villus sampling, partial molar pregnancy; Second and third trimester indications (100 microg)--amniocentesis, cordocentesis, other invasi...
متن کاملVariant RHD Types in Brazilians With Discrepancies in RhD Typing.
BACKGROUND The knowledge of D variants in patients and donors is important because anti-D alloimmunization can occur in some but not all individuals who express a variant RHD allele. Serologic distinction of RhD discrepancies is not always straightforward, which makes molecular analysis highly desirable. METHODS A group of 223 subjects, 129 patients, and 94 blood donors was identified and ana...
