18
Q

what does DAT detect

A

detects patients RBC that have already sensitized with IgG or complement in vivo

19
Q

what does iAT detect

A

Detects anti RBC Abs in patient serum In vitro coating of RBCs with antibody or complement

20
Q

what are tubeless tests

A

Gel column agglutiation solid phase RBC adherance tests

21
Q

Gel testing positive result

A

agglutinated cells are too large to enter the gel matrix and remain at top

22
Q

is this positive or negative

A

Positive for agglutination

23
Q

is this positive or negative

A

negative for agglutination

24
Q

positive solid phase test

A

indicator RBCs diffusely adhere over the well

25
Q

oligosaccharide surface glycoproteins

A

ABO, I, P

26
Q

clinically significant allo-Ab cause what

A

hemolytic transfusion reaction and/or heomlytic disease of the fetus and neonate

27
Q

Most warm reactive allo antibodies are Ig___

A

IgG

28
Q

Most cold reactive allo-Ab are Ig__

A

IgM

29
Q

ABO is what type of Ig

A

IgM

30
Q

people with type O blood have what Ab in plasma

A

anti A&B, and anti AB

31
Q

The chance we cn aget Ag-negative RBC is

A

1-indicence of positivity

32
Q

which type of Ags are more clinically significant

A

protein, bc they are active at body temp

33
Q

what does blood type mean

A

which A, B and D antigens are present on a patients RBC

34
Q

whats a forward test

A

testing RBC with commercial anti-A, anti-B, anti-D

35
Q

Reverse test

A

patients plasma are miced with commercial testing cells (A+RBC and B+RBC)

36
Q

Ab screening is for

A

checking whether there are unexpected non-ABO antibody in the recipietn plasmabesides Anti-A or Anti-B

37
Q

if the Abs react in RT IS then

A

you dont need to worry about it becuase they wont react in body temp

38
Q

if antibodies react at 37 degrees then

A

they are warm antibodies and would react at room temp

39
Q

crossmatching

A

confirming theres no reaction between pt RBC and transfusion plasma

40
Q
A
41
Q

Crossmatching is mandatory when

A

the need of tranfusion is NOT urgent

42
Q

if the Ab screen is negative then you need to

A

confirm ABO compatibility and you dont need to worry about antibodies

43
Q

if the patient cross match has antibodies you have to

A

do complete XM
