Abstract

Introduction Patients with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopaenia frequently experience minor and sometimes severe bleeding complications. Unrestrictive availability of safe and effective blood products is presumed by treating physicians as well as patients. Pathogen reduction technology potentially offers the opportunity to enhance safety by reducing bacterial and viral contamination of platelet products along with a potential reduction of alloimmunisation in patients receiving multiple platelet transfusions. Methods and analysis To test efficacy, a randomised, single-blinded, multicentre controlled trial was designed to evaluate clinical non-inferiority of pathogen-reduced platelet concentrates treated by the Mirasol system, compared with standard plasma-stored platelet concentrates using the percentage of patients with WHO grade ≥2 bleeding complications as the primary endpoint. The upper limit of the 95% CI of the non-inferiority margin was chosen to be a ≤12.5% increase in this percentage. Bleeding symptoms are actively monitored on a daily basis. The adjudication of the bleeding grade is performed by 3 adjudicators, blinded to the platelet product randomisation as well as by an automated computer algorithm. Interim analyses evaluating bleeding complications as well as serious adverse events are performed after each batch of 60 patients. The study started in 2010 and patients will be enrolled up to a maximum of 618 patients, depending on the results of consecutive interim analyses. A flexible stopping rule was designed allowing stopping for non-inferiority or futility. Besides analysing effects of pathogen reduction on clinical efficacy, the Pathogen Reduction Evaluation and Predictive Analytical Rating Score (PREPAReS) is designed to answer several other pending questions and translational issues related to bleeding and alloimmunisation, formulated as secondary and tertiary endpoints. Ethics and dissemination Ethics approval was obtained in all 3 participating countries. Results of the main trial and each of the secondary endpoints will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. Trial registration number NTR2106; Pre-results.

28. Challenges and opportunities to prevent transfusion errors: a Qualitative Evaluation for Safer Transfusion (QUEST)

Author

Abstract

BACKGROUND: One of the most frequent causes of transfusion-associated morbidity or mortality is the transfusion of the wrong blood to the wrong patient. This problem persists in spite of the incorporation of numerous procedures into the pretransfusion checking process in an effort to improve patient safety. A qualitative study was undertaken to understand this process from the perspective of those who administer blood products and to identify concerns and suggestions to improve safety. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Twelve focus group discussions and seven individual interviews were conducted at six hospitals in five countries (n = 72 individuals). Health care professionals from a variety of clinical areas participated. Data analysis identified common themes using the constant comparison method. RESULTS: Five major themes emerged from the analysis: the pretransfusion checking process, training, policy, error, and monitoring. Findings include the following: staff were aware and appreciative of the seriousness of errors and were receptive to continuous monitoring, the focus was on checking the bag label with the paperwork rather than the bag label with the patient at the bedside, training methods varied with most perceived to have minimal effectiveness, and access to policies was challenging and keeping up to date was difficult. Other factors that could contribute to errors included high volume of workload distractions and interruptions and familiarity or lack of familiarity with patients. CONCLUSIONS: Multiple factors can contribute to errors during the pretransfusion checking limiting the effectiveness of any individual intervention designed to improve safety. Areas of further research to improve safety of blood administration were identified.

Abstract

SUMMARY Background and Objective: Although several studies focus on red blood cell (RBC) alloantibody distribution in selected patient populations, few address the specificity and frequency in all relevant groups. This study reports alloantibody frequency, distribution and the relationship to age and gender in blood donors, pregnant women and potential recipients of blood products. Methods: This historical cohort study included 55 462 consecutive antibody screening tests from a tertiary Western Norwegian Hospital. Descriptive statistics were performed, and the results were compared with the literature. Results: The detection and immunisation frequency for the whole cohort were 0·39 and 0·51%, respectively, whereas the RBC alloantibody prevalence was 0·73%. The most frequent RBC alloantibodies were anti‐E (20·1%), anti‐M (18·7%), anti‐K (9·8%), anti‐D (8·9%) and anti‐Fy(a) (7·0%). In pregnant women, the most frequent RBC alloantibodies were anti‐M, anti‐D and anti‐Le(a) (20·8, 18·9 and 18·9%, respectively), whereas there was no anti‐K detected. Anti‐E and anti‐M were the dominating RBC alloantibodies in the pre‐transfusion testing of in‐hospital patients (24·1 and 17·1%, respectively). Eighteen (9·2%) persons in the total cohort had two RBC alloantibodies, six persons had three alloantibodies, and two persons had four alloantibodies. Rh and K typing to prevent future immunisations was only performed in 21·0% of the individuals who presented with a new alloantibody; despite that, 50·5% of the detected alloantibodies had such specificities. Conclusions: The immunisation frequency and the level of anti‐K are low compared to national and international studies. Rh and K phenotype‐matched blood transfusions might be a feasible future strategy to further decrease RBC alloantibodies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

PubMed: 26787795, Background: Transfusion of allogeneic blood influences outcome after surgery. Despite widespread availability of transfusion guidelines, transfusion practices might vary among physicians, departments, hospitals and countries. Our aim was to determine the amount of packed red blood cells (pRBC) and blood products transfused intraoperatively, and to describe factors determining transfusion throughout Europe. Methods: We did a prospective observational cohort study enrolling 5803 patients in 126 European centres that received at least one pRBC unit intraoperatively, during a continuous three month period in 2013. Results: The overall intraoperative transfusion rate was 1.8%; 59% of transfusions were at least partially initiated as a result of a physiological transfusion trigger- mostly because of hypotension (55.4%) and/or tachycardia (30.7%). Haemoglobin (Hb)- based transfusion trigger alone initiated only 8.5% of transfusions. The Hb concentration [mean (sd)] just before transfusion was 8.1 (1.7) g dl-1 and increased to 9.8 (1.8) g dl-1 after transfusion. The mean number of intraoperatively transfused pRBC units was 2.5 (2.7) units (median 2). Conclusions: Although European Society of Anaesthesiology transfusion guidelines are moderately implemented in Europe with respect to Hb threshold for transfusion (7-9 g dl-1), there is still an urgent need for further educational efforts that focus on the number of pRBC units to be transfused at this threshold. © 2016 The Author.

Abstract

Background For a clinical platelet ( PLT) transfusion trial conducted in three countries, the production of PLT concentrates ( PCs) that were pathogen inactivated with the Mirasol technology was set up and validated. While the Mirasol procedure is applied to an established PLT product, the PLT processing procedure still had to be modified to ensure a treated PC was of sufficient quality. Further, the effect of simulated transport conditions and the effect of ambient light on Mirasol-treated PCs was determined. Study Design and Methods Platelet concentrates in plasma were made from pooled buffy coats followed by Mirasol treatment. To mimic transport conditions, units were left unagitated for 6 h at room temperature. To mimic ambient light exposure, units were held unagitated for 4 h in direct fluorescent tube light. Results Measures had to be taken to allow 7-day storage of treated concentrates. In one site, PCs made from five buffy coats with >450 × 109 PLTs were removed from inventory. Another site went from five to four buffy coats per pool. Interruption of agitation for 6 h on day 3 did not induce meaningful changes in in vitro measures, even when stored up to 7 days. Exposure to ambient light for 4 h, either on day 3 or 6, had no effect on in vitro measures. Conclusion The Mirasol pathogen inactivation process can be implemented in routine, but changes to current PLT processing methods might be needed. Transport conditions and 4-h-long ambient light exposure have no negative effect on the in vitro quality of Mirasol-treated PCs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
