I also considered this. The patient had two type and screens prior to the transfusion that both resulted as A pos and negative antibody screen. The post transfusion type and screen resulted as anti-A (4+), anti-B (neg), anti-D (4+), A1 (neg), B (3+), and a positive antibody screen. If an anti-A1 were present, wouldn't there be an ABO discrepancy? -
Hello, I am new to the forum! There's a case study at the hospital I work at and there's one question everyone's having trouble with. Patient is A pos and the question is "why are there reactions at immediate spin reading that do not show up at the AHG reading?". My first thought would be a cold antibody, but that typically has a reaction at immediate spin with a weak reaction at AHG, correct? What do you all think? Thanks!
