About this study

Our study is aiming for evaluation f the titre of anti-A and anti-B in plasma of blood grop O donors, study the effect of pooling of blood product on the level of A and B isoagglutinins in blood group O donors and screening for the safest group o donors(who have the lowest anti-A antd anti-B titre) for transfusion in urgent need of blood.

Read the detailed description

the use of O blood group transfusion to patients of all groups has continued since the second world war, nevertheless the transfusion of group O plasma/ platelet concentrate to group A, B and AB recipient sometimes causes severe red cell destruction , Acute haemolysis has been reported following transfusion of non-iso group single donor platelet (PLT) concentrates and may be more common than is appreciated.

This red blood cells destruction happens based on the fact that the sera from group O people contain two separable antibodies, anti-A and anti-B .

When it comes to PLT transfusion therapy we are dealing with issues arising from the fact that PLTs contain both significant amounts of ABO antigen on their surface, as well as anti ABO isogglutinins in the donor's plasma which caused reduction the volume of incompatible plasma administrated.

From another point of view the risk of high titer units is considered low with group O, post storage, pooled PLT concentrate. However its necessary to establish a (golden standard) method for the determination of antibody titer in order to be able to differentiate accurately the high titer donors.

So, for improving the safety of group O plts we need to define a safe level of antibody titer or reduce the volume of incompatible plasma administrated.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Decrease the risk of red cell destruction resulting from transfusion of RBCs/ platelet concentrate group O transfusion in urgent cases.

    Using blood group typ "O" For other blood group types without causing any reaction resulting from blood transfusion .

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. screening for the best group O donors to use for other groups urgent cases as a reserve for transfusion.

    Using blood group typ "O" For other blood group types without causing any reaction resulting from blood transfusion .

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Isoagglutinins Level, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Decrease the risk of red cell destruction resulting from transfusion of RBCs/ platelet concentrate group O transfusion in urgent cases. (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2021.
