Abstract
The incorporation of an anti-A/B immunoadsorption column into the extracorporeal circuit reduces allogeneic blood product requirement for ABO-incompatible heart transplantation, while providing efficacious removal of anti-A and anti-B isohemagglutinins. This can be undertaken within the time period of CPB before graft reperfusion and expands the potential recipient pool to larger patients with higher isohemagglutinin titers.
