Platelet allergy can still be transfused depending on the symptoms of the patient’s allergic reaction, mild cases of dexamethasone and other anti-allergy at the same time can continue to be transfused, respiratory distress and other serious symptoms should be discontinued transfusion for resuscitation.
Platelets are blood products, and allergy during platelet transfusion is a common clinical transfusion reaction. In some cases, there may be mild reactions, such as windburn and itching, and anti-allergic drugs such as iproniazine and dexamethasone may be given during the transfusion process. In the case of severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis and respiratory distress, the transfusion should be stopped immediately and resuscitation should be performed.
Different blood donors have different reactions each time. Platelet antibody test should be done before transfusion or dexamethasone can be given before operation to effectively prevent allergy. When there is allergy in platelet transfusion, transfusion of leukocyte-removed platelets can also achieve the therapeutic purpose.
