Muhammad Awwal Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Greetings, The Handbook of Transfusion Medicine by Dr Norfolk says that the 1st choice of platelet for a group B patient is group A platelet (HT negative). Is there a scientific basis for this, or is it just down to population frequency and logistics? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Needs ☆ Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 While Derek is an excellent editor, I think that you should read the BSH Guidelines on the use of platelets, which was issued in 2016 and, therefore, supersedes the book.
