The Analysis of the Effect of Blood Transfusion on Changes of Blood Platelet Parameters in Patients with Leukemia Treated with Chemotherapy.

OBJECTIVE

To study and analyze the effect of blood transfusion on the change of blood platelet parameters in patients with leukemia treated with chemotherapy.

METHODS

Ninety-eight patients with leukemia treated with chemotherapy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected to observe the changes of platelet parameters before and after blood transfusion.

RESULTS

There was significant difference between pre-transfusion and post-transfusion indexes (platelet count, mean platelet volume, and hematocrit) ( < 0.05). After binary logistic regression analysis, the use of antibiotics (OR = 2.235), blood transfusion history (OR = 3.086), abnormal white blood cell count (OR = 1.134), and frozen plasma transfusion (OR = 3.121) were the main factors of blood platelet parameters after transfusion in leukemia patients ( < 0.05).

CONCLUSION

Blood transfusion is beneficial to improve blood platelet parameters and prevent bleeding in patients with leukemia treated with chemotherapy. Attention should be paid to patients with risk factors for poor response to blood platelet transfusion and early intervention.
