TRALI-SYNDROME: DIAGNOSTICS, PREVENTION, TREATMENT

Abstract

The lecture is devoted to transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), which is rarely encountered and therefore poorly studied by clinicians. With late diagnosis and inadequate management, the injury can be fatal. In some countries, it is ranked third among causes of death associated with complications developed due to blood transfusions. The lecture discusses issues of etiology, pathogenesis, symptoms, and diagnostics of TRALI. Special attention is paid to prevention, in particular, improvement of the blood transfusion service.
