Abstract:
【Objective】 To analyze the effect of intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG)-produced IgG antibody on the crossmatch incompatibility of neonates. 【Methods】 Blood type grouping, antibody screening, crossmatch, direct anti-globulin test, elution test, indirect antiglobulin test, and IVIG titer determination were conducted by microcolumn gel method. 【Results】 IgG anti-A were detected out in the elution test and free antibody test of 6 infants, and the titer of IgG anti-A contained in IVIG was 256, which led to the crossmatch incompatibility between infants and donors with the same type. 【Conclusion】 The hemolysis and crossmatch incompatibility in newborns, born to ABO-compatible mothers, may occur due to the IVIG-induced IgG antibodies. The O-type washed red blood cells should be selected for transfusion.
