Common ABO Typing Discrepancies: Answer questions fully and include all steps in probable cause and resolution. Given the data, determine the probable ABO group, type of discrepancy, probable causes, and resolution.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to analyze a set of ABO typing results in order to identify the probable ABO group, type of discrepancy, probable causes, and resolution steps based on the given data.
Answer
O, Weak antibodies, Missing/weak reverse reactions, Enhance conditions and retest.
Probable ABO Group: O Type of discrepancy: Weak antibodies Probable Causes: Missing reactions in reverse typing due to weak antibody production or technical error. Resolution: Enhance reaction conditions (e.g., increase incubation time or temperature) and repeat testing.
Answer for screen readers
Probable ABO Group: O Type of discrepancy: Weak antibodies Probable Causes: Missing reactions in reverse typing due to weak antibody production or technical error. Resolution: Enhance reaction conditions (e.g., increase incubation time or temperature) and repeat testing.
More Information
ABO discrepancies can occur when forward and reverse typing do not match. Group O individuals show no agglutination with anti-A or anti-B, but resolution often involves confirming weak or missing antibody reactions.
Tips
A common mistake is overlooking technical errors in testing. Always consider re-evaluating the methodology.
