Outcomes of therapeutic plasma exchange in severe autoimmune hemolytic anemia hospitalizations: An analysis of the National Inpatient Sample
CONCLUSION: Hospitalizations with severe AIHA that received TPE had higher rates of adverse in-hospital outcomes.PMID:37395043 | DOI:10.1111/trf.17445

Plasma exchange-A useful adjunct therapy to red cell exchange in patients with sickle cell disease and multiorgan dysfunction
CONCLUSION: The findings suggest TPE may be considered as an adjunct treatment for patients with acute complications of SCD that progress to MODS, especially in cases where there is no significant improvement following RBCx.PMID:37317564 | DOI:10.1111/trf.17448

How do we operate a large monthly red blood cell exchange program
CONCLUSION: A combination of multidisciplinary coordination and process improvement can ensure the success of a high volume RBC exchange program. Frequent communication of upcoming appointments between the referring hematologists, the hemapheresis clinic, transfusion service, and interventional radiology is critical. Advance notice to the immunohematology reference lab of upcoming appointments is needed to allow enough time for allocating antigen-negative RBCs. Order sets can be leveraged to standardize and streamline RBC exchanges. Lastly, numerous mechanisms help patients compensate for the cognitive sequelae of stroke.P...

Factor eight inhibiting bypass activity for refractory bleeding in acute type A aortic dissection repair: A propensity-matched analysis
We report our experience in utilizing FEIBA in ATAAD repair.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: A retrospective review was undertaken of all consecutive patients who underwent repair of ATAAD between July 2014 and December 2019. Patients were divided into two groups, dependent upon whether or not they received FEIBA intraoperatively: "FEIBA" (n = 112) versus "no FEIBA" (n = 119). From this, 53 propensity-matched pairs of patients were analyzed with respect to transfusion requirements and short-term clinical outcomes.RESULTS: Thirty-day mortality for the entire cohort was 11.7% (27 deaths), not significantly different between patient...

Over-transfusion with blood for suspected hemorrhagic shock is not associated with worse clinical outcomes
DISCUSSION: Early empiric RBC transfusion for presumed hemorrhagic shock may subject patients to potential over-transfusion and end-organ damage. Among patients meeting clinical triggers for MTP, 1-3 units of allogeneic RBCs is not associated with worse outcomes.PMID:35753037 | DOI:10.1111/trf.16978

Hemodilution in high-risk cardiac surgery: Laboratory values, physiological parameters, and outcomes
This study suggests hemodilution to be a safe and comparable blood conservation technique, even without accounting for potential benefits of reduced allogenic blood administration. The study may contribute to better understanding and wider acceptance of ANH protocols in high-risk cardiac surgeries.PMID:35244229 | DOI:10.1111/trf.16844

Safety and benefits of automated red cell reduction-exchange compared to standard exchange in patients with sickle cell disease undergoing chronic transfusion.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study supports that IHD-RCE can be safely used in patients with stroke risk and compared to standard RCE, results in benefits of lower RBC usage and/or fraction of cells remaining and higher postprocedure Hct associated with higher preprocedure Hct. These findings support wider use of IHD-RCE, especially in the current environment with reduced availability of minority units.
