SOP for the titration of hemagglutinins
Cliff replied to Sherif Abd El Monem's topic in Education / Quality
This is just my opinion. First, it's usually not a titer but a single-point dilution. What dilution? It's truly arbitrary. Some go 1:50, some 1:100, others 1:200. It depends on what the facility medical director will accept. Your colleague should collaborate with their medical director to determine what they feel is "safe". This cut-off will not prevent reactions, only minimize the risk. Then from there, it should be a simple procedure of a single-point dilution, with a cut of 1+, 2+... or less. -
Hi everyone, a colleague needs an SOP for the titration of hemagglutinins for LTOWB. Could you please share your SOPs? Thanks in advance for all your help.

Sad to hear this. We love our MaxQ coolers and MTP coolers and will probably have to replace the whole thing when the handles go out. Boo

I agree with Bet'naSBB - the IS XM must be done in either tube or gel/other serologic method to verify ABO compatibility. Since a patient with a current or history of clinically significant antibody does not qualify for electronic crossmatch, the serologic version must be included with the AHG phase XM.
-
The question was, do you have to do ISXM when the patient required full XM........ The visions can do the ISXM when they do the full XM - you just have to program it correctly - and it uses a buffer card. If you don't want to do the IS XM in a buffer card, you would have to do the ISXM in tube to verify ABO Compatibility. As stated above, The IgG card used for full XM is not "approved" to "catch" ABO compatibility. I think you have to do it - even if your BB LIS is capable of flagging an ABO incompatibility - but someone correct me if I'm wrong.
