Performance profile of an updated safety measure rapid assay for bacteria in platelets.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Hypoxia is a major cause of painful vaso-occlusive crisis in sickle cell disease (SCD). Simple transfusion and red blood cell (RBC) exchange are commonly used as preventive therapies whose aim is to dilute hemoglobin (Hb)S-containing RBCs (SS-RBCs) with normal RBCs (AA-RBCs) to prevent sickling. We hypothesi...
