Event Description
|
The customer reported an adverse reaction from trima platelets.During the procedure the patient presented with erythematous papules on the face and scalp and was given iv chlorpheniramine and iv hydrocortisone.The patient is reported as stable.The collection set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.

Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being filed to provide additional information in h.6 and h.10.Investigation: a disposable complaint history search was performed for this lot and found no reports for similar issues on this lot.According to the aabb circular of information for the use of human blood components (revised 2017), allergic reactions frequently occur (ie, 1-3% of plasma-containing components) as mild or self-limiting urticaria or wheezing that usually respond to antihistamines.More severe manifestations, including respiratory and cardiovascular symptoms, are more consistent with anaphylactoid/anaphylactic reactions and may require more aggressive therapy.No laboratory procedures are available to predict these reactions.Anaphylactic reactions, characterized by hypotension, tachycardia, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea, abdominal pain, severe dyspnea, pulmonary and/or laryngeal edema, and bronchospasm and/or laryngospasm, are rare (<10/100,000 transfused units) but dangerous complications requiring immediate treatment with epinephrine.While these reactions have been reported in iga-deficient patients with anti-iga antibodies and patients with haptoglobin deficiency, most reactions are idiosyncratic and not associated with a specific serum protein deficiency, polymorphism, or identifiable cause.A review of the device history record (dhr) for this unit showed no irregularities during manufacturing that were relevant to this issue.Investigation is in process.A follow-up report will be provided.
