Abstract
I noted from Dr. de Koning’s paper showing the results pre- and post-1974 that the two parameters had been changed: from normal regular red cells to leucocyte-poor red cells, and from normal platelet concentrates to leucocyte-poor platelet concentrates. Can he delineate the results for both of these parameters? What was the actual effect of the leucocyte-poor red cell transfusions on the percentage drop in the immunisation and what is the percentage due to the leucocyte-poor platelet transfusions?
