Research Activities
Dr. Mair’s research interests include studies on antibody test results on patients diagnosed with TRALI and on donors implicated in TRALI reations; collaboration between the transfusion service and blood supplier decrease cost of transfusing crossmatched platelets; an unusual case of hemolytic disease of the newborn in a mother undergoing in-vitro fertilization with donor oocytes; and culture results on platelets involved in transfusion reactions. Dr. Mair has presented his research at numerous poster presentations.
