Abstract
Incidence of irregular antibodies in patients at 0.12% was slightly lower than published reports and could be because of the fact that the patient population studied comprised largely of surgical patients many of whom have never received blood transfusion. This data could also be more representative since the number of patients studied was much higher as compared to the previous Indian studies (32,560 vs. 531-2026). The report on incidence of irregular antibodies and DAT (0.009-0.04%) in blood donors was first such attempt in India.
