Look-back study on recipients of Parvovirus B19 (B19V) DNA-positive blood components

Background and Objectives To assess the relevance of Parvovirus B19 (B19V) DNA at low to intermediate concentrations in blood donors for the recipients of their blood components. Material and Methods We studied recipients of B19V DNA‐positive blood components [red blood cell concentrates (RBCs), poo...

Zusammenfassung:Background and Objectives To assess the relevance of Parvovirus B19 (B19V) DNA at low to intermediate concentrations in blood donors for the recipients of their blood components. Material and Methods We studied recipients of B19V DNA‐positive blood components [red blood cell concentrates (RBCs), pooled platelet concentrates and fresh frozen plasma]. This included archived pretransfusion samples as well as follow‐up samples investigated by ELISA or NAT and genome sequence analysis. Results In 132 out of 424 recipients, we could detect no anti‐B19V IgG before transfusion. In 67 out of 132 sero‐negative recipients, a follow‐up sample was available. Sixty‐five of these received blood components from donors with
