Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore recent advancements in transfusion medicine and immunological research, addressing innovations that enhance blood transfusion safety, efficacy, and patient outcomes. We welcome contributions on topics such as pre-transfusion tests, novel blood component processing and storage techniques, pathogen reduction strategies, personalized transfusion approaches, and alternatives to transfusion. The innovations imposed by new technologies and possible changes in the availability of personnel could make telemedicine and remote validation a very interesting frontier to explore, and discussion of these topics is becoming increasingly necessary. Research on transfusion-related immunology, including allo- and auto-antierythrocite antibody management, immune tolerance, and the role of the immune system in transfusion reactions, is also of interest. Additionally, studies on emerging alternatives, such as blood substitutes, cellular therapies, and immunomodulatory interventions, are encouraged. This issue seeks to provide a comprehensive platform for clinicians and researchers to share cutting-edge findings that drive the future of transfusion medicine and immunological advancements.
