Description
TRALI continues to be an important topic in transfusion medicine. Investigating whether TRALI occurred and what the donor and/or patient etiology of TRALI is, continues to be poorly defined and standardized amongst laboratories and donor centers. This session will review an across-the-U.S. look at how TRALI is being investigated. Also, a specific assay that may be underutilized in TRALI investigations will be discussed.

*Previously scheduled for March 28th

  • Become familiar with the role of the neutrophil priming assay in illuminating the etiology of TRALI in specific investigations.
  • Discover models of TRALI etiology investigations used by laboratories/donor centers in the U.S.
  • Review the definition of TRALI, including accepted etiologies.
