Abstract | BACKGROUND: STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: We performed a secondary analysis of a case-control study of pulmonary transfusion reactions at four academic hospitals. We evaluated clinical data and measured NT-proBNP levels prior to and following transfusion in patients with TACO (n = 160), transfused acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) [n = 51], TRALI [n = 12], TACO/ TRALI [n = 7], and controls [n = 335]. We used Wilcoxon Rank-Sum tests to compare NT-proBNP levels, and classification and regression tree (CART) algorithms to produce a ranking of covariates in order of relative importance for differentiating TACO from transfused controls. RESULTS: Pre-transfusion NT-proBNP levels were elevated in cases of transfused ARDS and TACO (both P < .001) but not TRALI (P = .31) or TACO/ TRALI ( P = .23) compared to transfused controls. Pre-transfusion NT-proBNP levels were higher in cases of transfused ARDS or TRALI with a diagnosis of sepsis compared to those without (P < .05 for both). CART analyses resulted in similar differentiation of patients with TACO from transfused controls for models utilizing either NT-proBNP levels (AUC 0.83) or echocardiogram results (AUC 0.80). CONCLUSIONS:
