Abstract

Abstract: The distribution of RhCE antigens in the Chinese populations differs from that in Caucasians and Africans, and genetic differences are also observed between northern and southern Chinese. The probability of RhCE antigen mismatch (23.6% to 26.31%) in Chinese transfusion patients is significantly higher than that of RhD antigen mismatch (0.39% to 0.45%), leading to a high incidence of RhCE alloantibodies in transfusion-related cases. Clinical transfusion studies indicate that RhCE antigen matching can reduce the risk of alloimmunization. This consensus proposes a RhCE antigen matching strategy for Chinese transfusion patients based on Landsteiner's rule and the distribution characteristics of RhCE antigens in the Chinese population.

Key words: Rh blood group, RhCE antigen matching, Blood transfusion, Expert
