  1. Thank you for that information. That makes sense and explains a lot
  2. Would you all agree that if the patient is reacting to the antibiotic in the red cell diluent that it should react with the entire panel. We are seeing this quite often but sometimes it doesn't react with all ten donor cells on the Ortho panel but the reactivity really looks like an ARD. I would appreciate any feedback.
  3. Jsbneg, Am I missing something. You said the patient was truly a type O after receiving several type A RBC's. Maybe I'm missing something in the message
  4. Am I missing something? You said the patient was type O but had received several type A units

  5. Thanks everyone for your replies and comments. Yes to Malcolm, the last wash was negative. The Elution kit we use is from Gamma, the Elu-kit. One correction though, I only had one eluate recover the anti-D, the other one was a warm auto. We no longer stock the DTT, I wish we did, so I am not able to confirm if it is anti -LW. I really suspect it is.
  6. This has happened twice in the last few days , where we are picking up Anti-D in the Eluate of an Rh negative patient. Patient has received RhoGam but no transfusions.
