Weak front type and weak reverse type resolution:<br />

Enhance forward type<br />

Incubate patient cells with antisera (per manufacturers directions)<br />

Enhance reverse type<br />

Incubate reverse type cells with patient serum for 15 to 30 minutes<br />

Room temperature or 18°C (per manufacturers directions)<br />

4°C for 15 minutes<br />

test concurrently with autologous cells and group O screening cells<br />

Investigation<br />

Patient age: 33 years old<br />

Diagnosis: Anemia<br />

Medications: None<br />

Resolution:<br />

Additional antibody in reverse type resolution:<br />

Prewarm Technique<br />

Incubate the serum and red cells separately at 37°C before testing<br />

Cold Adsorption<br />

Incubate equal amounts of red cells (adsorbing cells) and patient<br />

serum at 4°C for 30 to 60 minutes<br />

Test adsorbed serum against reverse typing cells<br />
