The rationale for the post-transfusion reactions prevention program in rh-positive patients
A case of a patient with А 2В (IV) Rh 0(D) + blood group, CcDEeK - phenotype, in whom anti-erythrocyte antibodies (+) were found and specified as anti-D antibodies, is presented. The Rh compatibility tests were positive with 28% Rh 0(D) +-donors (incompatibility) and negative with all Rh 0(D) --donors (compatibility) as well as with own erythrocytes (compatibility). The case indicates that a timely extensive examination of a patient’s blood (antigen profile examination with anti-erythrocyte antibodies detection) before blood transfusion guarantees the blood transfusion safety and reduces the rate of negative consequences of erythrocyte-containing blood components, including hemolytic reactions.
