Anti-D immunization after D positive platelet transfusions in D negative recipients: A systematic review and meta-analysis

DISCUSSION: Anti-D immunization is low after D incompatible platelet transfusions and dependent on recipients' sex and platelet source. We propose anti-D prophylaxis in girls and women, capable of becoming pregnant in the future, that received D+ platelets, regardless of platelet source, to reduce the risk of anti-D induced hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn.PMID:38634345 | DOI:10.1111/trf.17833
