Abstract

In 2009, the Society of Medical Technologists Belonging to the Council of Blood Centers at University-Hospitals in Japan (below Society of M.T.) investigated promotion of the carrying of cards published for individuals who have clinically significant-antibodies against red blood cell antigens (below antibody card).<br> First, we sent a questionnaire to 80 hospitals belonging to the Society of M.T.. The questionnaire enquired about whether the hospital published antibody cards, the contents of antibody cards and issues in publishing them. Responses were obtained from 57 hospitals (response rate 71.3%). Antibody cards were published by 19 hospitals (33.3%). Antibody cards consisted of full name (kanji only 42%, both kanji and kana 32%, kana only 26%), ID number 58%, birth date 74%, blood type ABO/D 79%. Seventeen hospitals (89%) published antibody cards only to individuals who have clinically significant-antibodies against red blood cells. Second, according to the results of the questionnaire, we then proposed the format of antibody cards, namely that the contents should include the patient's basic information (name, ID number, birth date, blood type), name of antibodies, examination date and/or date of publication, and reference. Precautions in publishing antibody cards were the prevention of entry mistakes and rewriting of the contents. Finally, the purpose of publishing antibody cards is the prevention of delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions due to secondary immune reaction during the antibodies' disappearance time, and we confirmed not to omit the detailed examinations for blood transfusion.<br>
