Popis: | BACKGROUND Four similar transfusion reactions involving infants were reported in less than 1 year. After transfusion of red blood cells (RBCs) via syringe in the operating room, each patient experienced discolored urine, laboratory evidence of hemolysis, and acute kidney injury. Clerical and serologic investigations were unremarkable. Mechanical hemolysis was considered. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Simulated syringe transfusions were performed. Measurements included hematocrit (Hct), free hemoglobin, and visual hemolysis index. Washed and unwashed RBCs were tested with or without a recently introduced one-way valve, using a 24- or 16-gauge intravenous catheter. Constant manual pressure (1.43 ± 0.49 mL/sec) or syringe pump (2 mL/min) was used and a subset was timed. RESULTS The valve increased hemolysis during manual transfusion using both catheters with washed and unwashed RBCs. With the 24-gauge catheter, the change in Hct was -3.53 ± 0.69% with the valve and 0.22 ± 0.13% without (p |
