Ans.
A. FNHTR
• Most frequently associated with
transfusion of cellular blood components is a febrile
nonhemolytictransfusionreaction FNHTR. .
• These reactions are characterized by
chills and rigors and a >1°C rise in temperature.
• FNHTR is diagnosed when other causes
of fever in the transfused patient are ruled out.
Antibodies directed against donor
leukocyte and HLA antigens may mediate these reactions; thus
frequentlytransfused patients and multiparous women are felt to be at increased
risk.
