متن کاملHemolytic transfusion reactions
A hemolytic transfusion reaction (HTR) is the accelerated clearance or lysis of transfused red cells because of immunologic incompatibility. Although they may at times have similar clinical presentations, HTR is distinguished from autoimmune hemolysis or nonimmune causes of shortened survival of transfused red cells. HTR may occur when antigen-positive red cells are transfused to a patient with...
متن کاملDelayed hemolytic transfusion reactions.
Delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions continue to occur in spite of the use of all of the currently available techniques of antibody detection. Both low titers of the antibodies and dosage effects appear to contribute to the failure of detection. A rapid anamnestic response can occur with transfusion of the appropriate antigen. The clinical as well as the laboratory presentation of delayed he...
