“…These errors can have serious consequences, including transfusion of incompatible blood products and subsequent adverse patient outcomes. To overcome these shortcomings and improve test quality and result reproducibility, new methods such as solid-phase red blood cell adhesion assay (SPRCA) and red blood cell magnetization (EMT) are being attempted [ 32 , 33 ]. However, these methods are not widely used in clinical practice.…”

A pre-transfusion crossmatch test is crucial for ensuring safe blood transfusions by identifying the compatibility between donor and recipient blood samples. Conventional tube methods for crossmatching have limitations, including subjectivity in result interpretation and the potential for human error. In this study, we evaluated the diagnostic performance of a new crossmatch test using Microscanner C3, which can overcome these shortcomings. The crossmatch test results using the method were obtained in 323 clinical samples. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and concordance rate of the crossmatch test using Microscanner C3 were 98.20%, 100.00%, 100.00%, 98.11%, and 99.07%, respectively. The diagnostic performance of the new system offers a promising alternative to conventional tube methods for pre-transfusion crossmatch testing. Microscanner C3 could also increase the automation, standardization, and accuracy of crossmatch tests. The crossmatch test using Microscanner C3 is thought to increase the efficiency and reliability in identifying blood samples suitable for transfusion, thereby improving patient safety and optimizing the use of blood products in clinical settings.
