Following transplantation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) from an ABO or D incompatible donor there is a need to carefully select components for transfusion that reflect the patient's new antigenic status.


Components:

(1) red blood cell (RBC) products

(2) fresh frozen plasma (FFP) or platelets

(3) second choice for platelets
