Abstract

Objective To investigate effect of platelet-associated antibody to the platelet transfusion.Methods Platelet-associated antibody in 120 patients who needed repeated platelet transfusion for long-time was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),and platelet count was assayed before and after blood transfusion,and the effect of platelet transfusion was investigated by corrected platelet count.Crossmatch approcah was used to screen compatible platelet for patients with platelet relative antibody positive.Results The ratio of positive platelet-aasociated antibody in patients who needed repeated platelet transfusion was 65.0%,and the ratio of platelet transfusion resistance was 61.7%.The ratios of platelet transfusion resistance were 84.6% and 19.0% respectively in patients with positive platelet-associated antibody and in patients with negative platelet-associated antibody,which were different in statistic in both groups( x2 =,46.914,P <0.0l ).The effective ratio of platelet transfusion in patients with positive platelet-associated antibody after crossmatch approach was 85.9%.Conclusion Positive platelet-associated antibody was related to platelet transfusion resistance with high risk,and crossmatch approach could increase the effect of platelet transfusion. Key words: Platelet-associated antibody; Platelet transfusion; Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
