abstract：BACKGROUND:Currently, low titer A plasma is used on a routine basis in bleeding trauma patients of unknown AB type. Three AB non-bleeding apheresis patients are presented here who safely received a combination of AB and low titer A plasma during therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE). One control AB patient received AB plas...
