Why do we care?
Compatibility testing is done to avoid
a hemolytic transfusion reaction
Rhesus
47 Antigens make up the
Rhesus Blood Group
The most significant is the
D antigen
But no
intravascular clumping
What is compatibility
testing?
Also called pretransfusion testing
Purpose:
To select blood components that will not cause

COMPATIBILITY TESTING
Processing the specimen:
ABO Group determined (forward and
reverse)
D typing determined
Antibody screen will be performed
ABO/Rh identical or compatible blood
will be made available
Sample Identification
The sample should
Specimen Tubes
Serological Testing
3 tests:
ABO/Rh
Antibody detection/identification
Crossmatch
ABO/Rh Typing
In the ABO typing, the forward and reverse
MUST match
In the Rh typing, the control must be negative
Both of these will indicate what type of blood
should be given
ABO TYPING
Front or forward type using monoclonal
anti-A and anti-B (commercial)
The sample is diluted to Hct 0.08, the
commercial antibodies added & the
test tube is centrifuged
The RBCs are then examined for
clumping (gross observation, gel
suspension)

ANTIBODY SCREENING
Detection of unexpected clinically
significant antibodies against the minor
blood group system antigens
Positive in between 0 - 8% of samples

Crossmatching
Purpose:
Prevent transfusion reactions
Increase in vivo survival of red cells
Double checks for ABO errors
Another method of detecting antibodies
Crossmatches
According to the AABB Standards:
No agglutination ~ compatible
Agglutination ~ incompatible
Donor RBCs
(washed)
Patient serum
The procedure
Donor cells are
taken from
segments that are
attached to the unit
itself
Segments are a
sampling of the
blood and eliminate
having to open the
actual unit
Crossmatch Procedure
if antibodies are NOT detected:
Only immediate spin (IS) is performed using
patient serum and donor blood suspension
This fulfills the AABB standard for ABO
incompatibility
This is an INCOMPLETE CROSSMATCH
If antibodies ARE detected:
Antigen negative units found and X-matched
All phases are tested: IS, 37, AHG
This is a COMPLETE CROSSMATCH
Will
Verify donor cell ABO compatibility
Detect most antibodies against donor cells
Will Not
Guarantee normal survival of RBCs
Prevent patient from developing an antibody
Detect all antibodies
Prevent delayed transfusion reactions
and
screen
alone,
an
immediate-phase
crossmatch is performed.
Blood given in this manner is more than 99%
effective in preventing incompatible transfusion
reactions due to unexpected antibodies.
Physician responsibility in
ordering uncrossmatched
blood
In an emergency (ER or OR), there may not be

Macroscopic agglutination.
This takes 1 to 5 minutes

1. Infuse crystalloids or colloids.
2. Draw a blood sample for typing and

crossmatching.
3. If crossmatched blood is not ready to give,
use type-specific or type O Rh-negative cells
or type O Rh-positive cells for males or
postmenopausal females without a history of
transfusions.
Summary
The crossmatch shall use methods that
