ScenarioMrs. S., a 45-year-old woman, is currently an in-patient
receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of a
malignancy. She consented to transfusion with blood
products as part of her treatment and has thus far
received several units of blood products.
West Nile Virus (WNV) nucleic acid testing of donated
blood commenced to prevent transmission of WNV
through the blood supply. Positive donor testing leads to
a recall of the donor’s products.
Unfortunately, only three of eight blood products could
be recalled from a positive donor. The other five units
were transfused to Mrs. S. Although Mrs. S. remains immunosuppressed from
chemotherapy, she is currently clinically stable and well.
Should it be disclosed to Mrs. S. that she received blood
products that the donor tested positive for WNV?
If so, when?If so, how?If so, by whom?
