"[The key findings were that 1) 81 percent of centers used identical red cell transfusion criteria for HIV-infected and noninfected patients; 2) 52 percent used recombinant human erythropoietin as initial treatment for zidovudine-induced anemia, while 46 percent used recombinant human erythropoietin for anemia not associated with zidovudine; 3) 35 percent of centers used white cell-reduced blood components in lieu of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-seronegative components when administering transfusion(s) to CMV-seronegative patients; 4) 27 percent gamma-radiated cellular components, but no case of graft-versus-host disease had been observed; 5) > 85 percent of centers used monoclonal factor VIII for pediatric and adult hemophiliacs infected with HIV; 6) approximately one-third of centers routinely white cell-reduced cellular components; and 7) the most common reasons for white cell reduction included reduction of febrile reactions and CMV risk, reduction of platelet alloimmunization, and delay of immunomodulatory consequences of transfusion.].
