A 72 year old male with a previous history of a cold antibody is in the ICU with an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The doctor has ordered 8 units of packed red cells to be crossmatched at all times for this patient.

The patient's ABO/Rh is B positive.

The current antibody screen is positive in both the immediate spin phase and the AHG phase.

Anagram results

Results of the anagram show the presence of an antibody that reacts at immediate spin and AHG. Because Screen cell 1 is negative at the IS phase and positive at AHG, there are possibly multiple antibodies present (IgM and IgG).
