Clinical survey on 508 blood recipients were undertaken to find out the incidence of urticaria and the effects of pretreatment with antihistamine on urticaria. The following were obtained:
1) Among 508 recipients, the incidence of urticaria was 30(5.9%).
2) The urticaria was 15(5030) severe.~in degree.
3) The incidence of the urticaria wash more frequent in general anesthesia than spinal anesthesia.
4) There was no significant relationship between transfusions and the. mppearance _ of urticaria.
5) The rate of appearance of urticaria was higher in female than male.
6) In various age groups the majority of urticaria were in the third decade.
7) The average number of eosinophiles was within normal limits in all recipients.
8) The average duration of urticaria was -2 hours and 45 minutes.
The result of present study indicates the possibility that pretreatment with anti-histamine can prevent the urticaria after transfusion during anesthesia and involving more number cf recipients further study is necessary to verify the above results.
