Electronic crossmatch: a review.

All forms of crossmatching are crucial for confirming compatibility between the patient and the donor before transfusion. It is the fina check to ensure all pre-transfusion testing is correct and to prevent transfusion reactions in recipients. The aim of this review is to highlight the importance of...

      ab: All forms of crossmatching are crucial for confirming compatibility between the patient and the donor before transfusion. It is the fina check to ensure all pre-transfusion testing is correct and to prevent transfusion reactions in recipients. The aim of this review is to highlight the importance of electronic crossmatch (EXM) in transfusion science in New Zealand and across the globe, in consideration of the advantages and disadvantages. Several articles and guidelines were used to understand the background, implementation, characteristics, and features of EXM in medical laboratories. Interestingly, the prerequisites for utilising EXM varies across the globe and some transfusion centres do not approve EXM at all. EXM has disadvantages and caveats; however, many of these are nsignificant compared to the ability to provide improved patient care and efficiency in the laboratory.
