Bacterial screening of platelet concentrates (PC) by aerobic and anaerobic culturing (BacT\/ALERT, bioM\u00e9rieux) was introduced in the Netherlands in October 2001.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS:\u2002<\/jats:bold>\n                    In November 2002, a nationwide, uniform skin cleansing method was introduced with a double\u2010swab disinfection with 70 percent isopropyl alcohol. One location routinely used an integrated diversion bag to collect the first 20 to 30 mL.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>RESULTS:\u2002<\/jats:bold>\n                    Over the calendar years 2002 and 2003, in total 113,093 PCs derived from pooled buffy coats were screened. After introduction of the new disinfection method, 0.85\u2003percent were initially positive. This was a small reduction compared to the previous disinfection methods under which 0.95\u2003percent were initially positive. The location with use of the diversion bag showed a significantly lower frequency of bacterial contamination, with 0.50\u2003percent before and 0.37\u2003percent after introduction of 70\u2003percent isopropyl alcohol. In addition 8000 apheresis PCs were also screened, showing 24 initially positive samples (0.30%).\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>CONCLUSION:\u2002<\/jats:bold>\n                    The use of the diversion bag and, to a lesser extent, the use of double swabs with 70\u2003percent isopropyl alcohol, led to a reduction of contamination. As expected, predominant contamination with resident skin bacteria was reduced. The combination of diversion bag and new disinfection led to a frequency of initial positive results for pooled five\u2010donor PCs, which is similar to that of single\u2010donor apheresis PCs. Furthermore, the bacterial detection system and associated product recall procedures have been shown to be effective in preventing transfusion of contaminated PCs and\/or related red cells, especially for rapidly growing bacteria.\n
