Of these, only 5% had HLA antibodies in the donor sample and just a handful of cases may be due to reverse-trali. CONCLUSION Mitigation proves to be effective in reducing TRALI occurrence An action plan must be in place by October 1 st,

15 CONCLUSION Mitigation proves to be effective in reducing TRALI occurrence An action plan must be in place by October 1 st, 2016 CONCLUSION Should positive donors be re-screened and when? If a donor is still positive after re-screen, should testing be repeated? testing frequency? for how long to re-test? Because age of donor does not seems to be a factor, changes in recruitment strategies may not help in decreasing the positive rate. Can PAS help us in re-entry of some aphaeresis donor? How do we establish which donor to re-entry with PAS? Should we consider transfusion risk? What about HNA antibody screening? What else?
