Abstract:
Objective To apply three automatic blood group testing instruments, WADiana®(Diana), Techno TwinStation and ORTHO AutoVue Innova/Ultra, in clinical cross match test and to assess their effect, so as to ensure safe clinical blood transfusion. Methods The three instruments were used for cross matching test of 8 073 blood recipients and blood specimens of Shanghai Blood Center. The incompatible positive samples were reexamined by experiment cross matching antiglobulin test tube method. Results The 3 instruments detected 589 positive blood samples. There was no false positive result in the WADiana®(Diana) system; Techno TwinStation and ORTHO AutoVue Innova/Ultra analyzer had 6 and 19 false positive results, respectively. Conclusion All the three instruments can accurately detect the positive samples in clinical cross match test, and WADiana® system has a more prominent performance.
