Haem is associated with thrombosis in neonates and infants undergoing cardiac surgery for congenital heart disease
ConclusionHigher cell‐free total haem levels are associated with a higher risk of thrombosis in a paediatric cardiac surgical cohort. (Source: Vox Sanguinis)

Changes in circulating inflammatory markers following febrile non ‐haemolytic transfusion reactions to leucoreduced red cells
It would be desirable to be able to distinguish fever as a result of febrile non‐haemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTR) from other febrile conditions. To further characterize the inflammatory feature of FNHTR, we measured a large panel of inflammatory markers in pre‐ and posttransfusion plasma samples from patients with and without FNHTR following the transfusion of leucoreduced red blood cells. As FNHTR patients only displayed a significant increase in IL‐6, we conclude that changes in plasma cytokine levels during FNHTR are unlikely to be used diagnostically. An incidental finding of a distinct cytokine pattern i...

Patient blood management knowledge and practice among clinicians from seven European university hospitals: a  multicentre survey
ConclusionOverall, the responses indicated poor knowledge about PBM. Processes to diagnose and treat POA were not generally and homogeneously implemented. This survey should provide further impetus to implement programmes to improve knowledge and practice of PBM. (Source: Vox Sanguinis)

Administration of platelet concentrates suspended in bicarbonated Ringer's solution in children who had platelet transfusion reactions
ConclusionWashed PCs containing BRS‐A appear to prevent ATRs without loss of transfusion efficacy in children with primary haematological and malignant diseases. Their efficacy should be further evaluated through larger prospective clinical trials. (Source: Vox Sanguinis)

A uniform method for the simultaneous blood group phenotyping of Fya, Fyb, Jka, Jkb, S, s ̅, P1, k applying lateral‐flow technique
ConclusionExtended phenotype blood group parameters, including the serologically challenging Fyx phenotype, can be determined simultaneously, rapidly and accurately using the lateral flow (MDmulticard®) technology, even in cases when IgG class antibodies are the only source of diagnostic antibodies.

Novel intronic RHD variants identified in serologically D ‐negative blood donors
ConclusionsAll identified RHD variants contain at least one mutation that probably affects splicing to generate D‐negative phenotype. Hence, ethnic RhD antigen background must be considered when developing transfusion and obstetric strategies. (Source: Vox Sanguinis)
