n shown for each variable unless otherwise denoted; 20 of 73 patients had splenomegaly, accounting for 472 transfusions. Antibiotics included vancomycin, linezolid, and amphotericin. Proportion HLA-selected to RAP denotes the proportion of prior transfusions received by each patient in the study period that were HLA-selected products (excluding the first transfusion).

AML, acute myeloid leukemia; ANC, absolute neutrophil count; cPRA, calculated panel reactive antibody; DAT, direct antiglobulin test; DIC, disseminated intravascular coagulation; GVHD, graft-versus-host disease; HSCT, hematopoietic stem cell transplant; IQR, interquartile range; RAP, randomly selected apheresis platelets; SD, standard deviation; TMA, thrombotic microangiopathy.
