Transfusion of blood components is an irreplaceable form treatment for many patients1. However, besides providing sufficient amounts excellent quality, transfusion services should protect the safety donors. Numerous studies have proven that iron deficiency common in frequent donors, particularly women2–5. Determination haemoglobin concentration a routine part donor selection process both order to ensure adequate quality red cell concentrates collected and potential donor’s health. Indeed,...
The aim of this prospective, long-term study was to define the flow cytometric characteristics plasma cell CD56 expression as well determine clinical 204 multiple myeloma (MM) patients and 26 leukemia (PCL) with regard expression. intensity determined by measurement antigen molecules on defined Antibodies Bound per Cell (ABC) calculation Relative Fluorescence Intensity (RFI). found in 66% MM 54% PCL cases. RFI values for individual ranged from 7.6 27.4 while ABC cells 2255 58469. There a...
The surface expression of CD117 antigen (c-kit) on plasma cells from 158 multiple myeloma (MM), 12 cell leukemia (PCL), 7 MGUS, IgM lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma patients and 10 healthy subjects has been analyzed by flow cytometry using triple staining with the monoclonal antibodies CD138, CD38. intensity was calculated as relative fluorescence (RFI) for direct quantitative analysis QuantiBRITE test (Becton Dickinson) applied. Antibody bounding capacity (ABC) QuantiCALC software. present in...
BACKGROUND Transfusion of group O blood to non‐O recipients, or transfusion D– D+ can result in shortages blood, respectively. This study investigated RBC utilization patterns at hospitals around the world and explored context policies that guide ABO D type selection practices. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS was a retrospective on data from 2013 calendar year. included survey component asked about hospital practices collection where participants submitted information unit disposition including...
Transfusion of blood and components is one the widely used medical procedures. The responsibility for provision lies with Polish transfusion centers (CKiK) substantively supervised by Institute Hematology Medicine. Hospital based banks, hospital wards, immunohematology laboratories are CKiK. Every year approximately 600 thousand people donate blood, more than 75% which regular donors. annual number donations maintained at a constant level about 1.3 million. aim this position paper to present...
The aim of this prospective study was to define the flow cytometric characteristics simultaneously investigated bone marrow and peripheral blood plasma cells antigens expression in 36 cell leukemia (PCL) patients. immunophenotypic profile determined with a panel monoclonal antibodies. antigen intensity calculated as relative fluorescence (RFI). Bone showed particular following proportion cases: CD49d 100%, CD29 94%, CD54 93%, CD44 83%, CD56 60%, CD18 26%, CD11b 29%, CD11a 19%, CD117 27%,...
To understand the worldwide scope of RBC crossmatching and issuing practices measure efficiency using a novel quality indicator, crossmatch/issue (C/I) ratio.An electronic survey was disseminated to hospital transfusion services collecting details about practices. Respondents were asked enumerate number RBCs crossmatched issued at their institutions during 2014 calendar year calculate C/I ratio.Fifty-two responses received, mostly from North American (28/52, 54%). The crossmatch most common...
Hospital transfusion committees (HTCs) can oversee all aspects of practice at a hospital. This survey sought to identify which quality variables were being reported HTCs around the world.A working party composed members Biomedical Excellence for Safer Transfusion (BEST) collaborative developed that could be potentially presented HTC meetings. The was electronically sent BEST who encouraged complete it if they active on an and send other colleagues with similar experience. An expert panel...
BACKGROUND Typical practice is to transfuse group‐specific plasma units; however, there are situations where group AB (universal donor) issued A, B, or O recipients. If demand for exceeds collections, potential shortage. This project explored the patterns of utilization at hospitals around world. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS The study had two phases: a survey that inquired about hospital inventory, policies, and transfusion practices retrospective review 2014 calendar year data participants...
Background: Assessment of the basic aspects activity Polish Regional Blood Transfusion Centers (hereinafter referred to as Centers) in 2018. Materials and methods: Retrospective analysis 2018-data supplied by Centers. Results: In 2018, blood components were collected 21 132 local collection sites well during 13 189 mobile collections. The overall number donors was estimated at 590 470; majority non-remunerated (589 897 — including 37 824 responders donation appeals), 73 remunerated 500...
