Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) associated with poor outcome. However, an optimal therapeutic approach is lacking. Between 2000 and 2015, 4099 allogeneic HSCT were performed in eight pediatric centers of...

Viscoelastic Testing in Traumatic Brain Injury: Key Research Insights.

Transfusion medicine reviews

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an effective hemostatic agent used for the reduction of blood loss and transfusion. However, the safety profile of TXA remains in question due to a potential increased risk of venous thromboembolism. By applying TXA topically...

Quality of Evidence-Based Guidelines for Transfusion of Red Blood Cells and Plasma: A Systematic Review.

Transfusion medicine reviews

Pavenski K, Stanworth S, Fung M, Wood EM, Pink J, Murphy MF, Hume H, Nahirniak S, Webert KE, Tanael S, Landry D, Shehata N.

Many transfusion guidelines are available, but little appraisal of their quality has been undertaken. The quality of guidelines may potentially influence adoption. Our aim was to determine the quality of evidence-based transfusion guidelines (EBG) for red cells and plasma,...

Platelet Storage Lesions: What More Do We Know Now?.

Transfusion medicine reviews

Ng MSY, Tung JP, Fraser JF.
PMID: 29751949
Transfus Med Rev. 2018 Apr 17; doi: 10.1016/j.tmrv.2018.04.001. Epub 2018 Apr 17.

Platelet concentrate (PC) transfusions are a lifesaving adjunct to control and prevent bleeding in cancer, hematologic, surgical, and trauma patients. Platelet concentrate availability and safety are limited by the development of platelet storage lesions (PSLs) and risk of bacterial...

Pathophysiology of Trauma-Induced Coagulopathy.

Transfusion medicine reviews

Duque P, Calvo A, Lockie C, Schöchl H.
PMID: 34610877
Transfus Med Rev. 2021 Oct;35(4):80-86. doi: 10.1016/j.tmrv.2021.07.004. Epub 2021 Aug 29.

There is no standard definition for trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC). However, it could be defined as an abnormal hemostatic response secondary to trauma. The terms "early TIC" and "late TIC" have been recently suggested. "Early TIC" would refer to the...

Roles of Four-Factor Prothrombin Complex Concentrate in the Management of Critical Bleeding.

Transfusion medicine reviews

Blood Donation and Monetary Incentives: A Meta-Analysis of Cost-Effectiveness.

Transfusion medicine reviews

Bruers S.
PMID: 34742615

The effectiveness of monetary incentives to increase altruistic behavior is in dispute. Paying blood donors might be ineffective, as it could decrease altruistic motivations of voluntary donors (motivational crowding-out) or decrease blood quality (increase transmittable infectious disease risks). In...
