Blood Component Preparation and Therapy/Distribution and Administration Flashcards
red cell survival in storage
70%
red cell survival in 24 hours post transfusion
75% with 1% hemolysis
supports ATP generation by glycolytic pathway
dextrose
acts as substrate for red cell ATP synthesis
adenine
prevents coagulation by chelating calcium and protects the RBC membrane
citrate
prevents excessive decrease in pH
sodium biphosphate
osmotic diuretic acts as a membrane stabilizer
mannitol
maintains red cell metabolism during storage
additive solutions
how many mL of additive should be used per volume of blood?
100 mL for a 450 mL whole blood
110 mL for a 500 mL whole blood
when is the additive solution added to the whole blood?
within 72 hours of collection; extends storage to 42 days
additive solutions include:
AS-1 adsol
AS-3 nutricel
AS-5 optisol
restores 2,3-DPG and ATP in RBC units during storage or up to 3 days after expiration
rejuvination
rejuvination solution contains:
PIGPA pyruvate inosine phosphate glucose adenine
storage temperature for frozen RBC
40% glycerol: -65C
20% glycerol: -120C
expiration of irradiated RBC
28 days from irradiation or original outdate
expiration of thawed plasma
5 days from thawing
blood product that is not FDA licensed
thawed plasma
acceptable pH for platelets
pH>=6.2
residual leukocytes in leukoreduced units
<5x10^6 residual leukocytes in:
85% leukoreduced RBC
95% leikoreduced platelets
granulocytes in 75% units tested for apheresis granulocytes
> 1x10^10
units for thalassemia patients
neocyte enriched
frozen or deglycerolized red blood cells are for
rare blood types and autologous donations
unit that prevents anaphylactic reactions
washed RBC
given to patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria
leukoreduced RBCs
unit that prevents graft versus host disease and for blood units coming from the relative of the patient
irradiated RBCs
indications for platelet components
cancer patients (chemotherapy/radiation therapy)
stem cell transplants
patients with post operative bleeding
expected platelet increment/increase for a 70kg person
1 unit RDP: 5,000 to 10,000/uL
1 unit SDP: 30,000 to 60,000/uL
refractory also means
unresponsiveness
refractory or unresponsiveness of platelet concentrates may result from
antibodies to HLA class 1 antigens platelet antibodies (ITP) neutrophil/lymphocyte antibodies
corrected count increment (CCI)
determines the increase in platelet count
when is CCI done?
before transfusion
within 1 hour of transfusion
therapeutic dose of pooled platelets, platelet concentrates and platelet apheresis
1 unit/10kg body weight
unts to replace stable and labile coagulation factors
FFP: all coaulation factors and DIC
PF24: factor V and VIII
therapeutic dose of FFP and PF24
10 to 20 mL/kg 3-6 units in an adult
thawing of FFP and PF24
30-37C for 30 to 45 minutes
light spin
2000xg 3 minutes
heavy spin
5000xg 5 minutes
elliptical agitator
1 rpm
circular agitator
2-6 rpm
whole blood for platelet preparation and plasma should be processed within:
6-8 hours
ISBT 128 indicates
uniform labelling for international bar code recognition by computers
unit cannot be returned if
storage was at room temperature for 15-30 minutes
seal is broken
positive patient idetifcation is done using:
2 independent identifiers
