To ensure comprehensive understanding of blood group antigens — including minor antigens — blood transfusions require extended erythrocyte phenotyping or genotyping. However, such advanced testing is frequently unavailable in resource-limited settings. Implementing point-of-care testing on extended blood group antigens can enhance patient care in transfusion medicine by improving the accessibility, safety and efficiency of blood transfusions.
