Abstract
|
|
|
|
Patients with sickle cell anemia are chronically transfused. Therefore, it is important to prevent the alloimmunization of RBC antigens. The authors identified a high frequency antigen-negative blood group in patients with sickle cell anemia. As the number of foreigners residing in Korea is increasing, it is necessary to know what to consider when transfusing blood to sickle cell anemia patients. Patients with sickle cell anemia should be informed of the exact blood group type using extended RBC typing to confirm the ABO, Rh, Kell, and Duffy blood types at diagnosis or before the first blood transfusion. Extended matched blood transfusion can reduce the risk of alloimmunization of RBC antigens.
