Anti-D alloimmunization in Rh(D) negative adults with severe traumatic injury

DISCUSSION: In our severely injured adult trauma patients with MTP activation requiring uncrossmatched group O Rh(D) positive RBC products, the rate of anti-D detection was low. Additional studies are necessary to determine generalizability of these findings and fully characterize alloimmunization risks in trauma patients with varying extents of injury.PMID:34269429 | DOI:10.1111/trf.16493
