[HTML][HTML] Current concepts in the prevention of pathogen transmission via blood/plasma-derived products for bleeding disorders
G Di Minno, CF Perno, A Tiede, D Navarro, M Canaro… - Blood reviews, 2016 - Elsevier
The pathogen safety of blood/plasma-derived products has historically been a subject of
significant concern to the medical community. Measures such as donor selection and blood
screening have contributed to increase the safety of these products, but pathogen
transmission does still occur. Reasons for this include lack of sensitivity/specificity of current
screening methods, lack of reliable screening tests for some pathogens (eg prions) and the
fact that many potentially harmful infectious agents are not routinely screened for. Methods …
