Abstract

Safe blood transfusion is the primary need of all the health care delivery system. Though with the advances of transfusion medicine, the incidences of transfusion risk is gradually reduced, but the adverse transfusion reaction (ATR) of non hemolytic type still prevails. The purpose of this study was to estimate the incidence and pattern of transfusion-related adverse events at our centre. The present retrospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Transfusion Medicine from April 2011 to April 2018, at a multi-organ transplant centre in South India. All the Adverse transfusion reactions were investigated in detail in the blood bank for the clerical errors, immunohematology workup and classified according to their nature with imputability assessment. A total of 140 ATR were reported out of 100,569 blood components distributed during the study period. After the analysis and workup of the reported reactions, majority of the reactions were observed in males (71%, n = 99). Most common symptom presented was Itching/Rashes in 43.6% (n = 61) ATR. Allergic reactions (51.4%, n = 72), were the most commonly encountered ATR followed by FNHTR (25.7%, n = 36). FFP transfusions (0.2%) contributed to the majority of the rea...Continue Reading
