Abstract:
In order to search into the feasibility for method of crossmatching with small amount of anticoagulant blood from infant or senile patients, 76 crossmatching tests were performed with ABO compatible blood. The blood samples with ABO incompatible were divided into 6 groups: A and B, A and O, A and AB, B and O, B and AB, or O and AB, and 3 crossmatching tests were done for each group. The results showed the incomplete antibodies were examined in 1 case of ABO compatible crossmatching test, and no transfusion reactions were observed after transfusion with 76 blood matching tests. Agglutination phenomena were appeared in all of the ABO incompatible matchings. The observations suggest that the small amount of anticoagulant blood from recipient patients is feasible for crossmatching.
