Resumo

INTRODUÇÃO: Embora as infecções virais (Hepatite B e C, retroviroses - como o HIV e HTLV - e citomegaloviroses) sejam as infecções mais comumente transmitidas por intermédio de produtos e componentes hemoterápicos, várias infecções bacterianas e parasitárias também podem ser adquiridas por estavia. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Esta revisão inclui as principais entidades bacterianas (Sífilis, Doença de Lyme e bactérias Gram-positivas e Gram-negativas), parasitárias ( Doença de Chagas, leishmaniose, toxoplasmose, malária e babesiose) e riquetsioses capazes de transmissão transfusional. Os principais meios de prevenção (conservação dos diversos componentes hemoterápicos, testes laboratoriais de triagem e detecção, filtração de leucócitos), diagnóstico, assim como a distribuição geográfica e incidência transfusional são discutidos neste artigo.
