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.
