Article Synopsis
- High rates of inappropriate immunoglobulin (Ig) usage were found among patients with secondary immunodeficiencies (SIDs) at three hospitals in British Columbia.
- A retrospective chart review covering 2018 and 2019 revealed that new users had better adherence to appropriate usage guidelines than chronic users, primarily due to lack of follow-up IgG testing.
- The study suggests implementing stricter local guidelines to improve Ig usage and ensure proper monitoring and documentation in SID patients.
