Daftar Isi:
- Cross matching is a method to investigate compatibility between recipients and donor blood. Furthermore, this method is applied for investigation of compatibility between donor’s erythrocyte antigen and recipient’ serum antibody (major test) and for investigation of compatibility between donor serum antibody and recipient’s erythrocyte antigen (minor test). Cross matching may be performed using tube method (convensional) and gel method. To determine the charateristic of blood group and diagnosis in crossmatch incompatibility using Gel method. An observational study with retrospective approach has been done in blood bank Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital using data from Hospital information system and medical record from June 2013 until June 2014. Total 213 samples consisted of 105 males (49.3%) and 108 females (50.7%). Age groups >17 years old had a higher number for incompatibility (83.6%). Incompatibility was found also higher in infection group as the main diagnosis (77; 36.2%), B blood group (70; 32.9%), positive rhesus (100%) and minor incompatibility (81.2%). Samples from patients without transfusion history had a higher number of incompatibility (97.7%) than with transfusion history (2.3%). A further research by taking direct medical history from patient was suggested to avoid bias so the result of incompatibility would be more valid. A study for antibodies screening and identification for any crossmatch incompatibility was also suggestion.
