Blood Groups, Donation Flashcards
What are the red cell antigens
Proteins found on the surface of the membrane of red cell of 400 different type
Two main antigen n red cell
ABO
Rh
Components of blood group antigens
Carbohydrates and
On which structure of the red cell membrane are the blood group antigens present on
The glycolipids and glycoproteins
Which type of antigens is found on the carbohydrate chains of the membrane glycolipid
ABO
Hh
Li
P systems
Antigens present on glycoproteins band 3
ABO
Hh
Li
Antigens present on glycoproteins glycophorin A
MN
Antigens present on glycophorin B
Ss
U
Events that stimulate antibodies
Blood transfusion
Fetal antigen in maternal circulation
Environmental factors
What does the h gene code for
A sugar fucose that’s added to terminal sugar of precursor substance
Precursor substance of rbc in order
Glucose - galactose - n acetylglucosamine - galactose
What structure added due to enzyme coded transferase by A GENE
N acetylglucosamine
Substance added enzyme coded by gene B
D galactose
WHAT IS THE BOMBAY PHENOTYPE
people lack Hh antigen which prevents attachment of group A and B
Bombay phenotype
O
Bombay serum
Anti A
Anti B
Anti AB
anti H
Dominant antigens of rh system
C D E
Recessive antigens of Rh system
c d e
Strongest antigen effect for for rh system
Antigen D
So if D present -> rh pos
If D absent -> rh neg
What are the concept of blood safety
Appropriate and low risk donors
screening test for markers of infection
elimination of any pathogens residual
optimize blood usage
When should you transfuse
Only when necessary

What is acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
Hemolysis of transfused red cells due to pre-existing antibody in recipients serum
When does acute hemolytic transfusion reaction mostly occur
Mostly in ABO incompatibility especially in group O receiving non O blood
Most common form of transfusion reaction
Acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
Symptoms and signs of a cute hemolytic transfusion reaction
Heat Pain in vein throbbing headache fever chest tightness dyspnea myalgia lung pain Hypotensiom
Immunoglobulin involved in acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
IgM Which mediates complement activation Intravascular hemostasis and the activation of coagulation cascade
Complications of acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
Shock
disseminated intravascular coagulation
acute renal failure
Management of acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
Stop transfusion alert blood bank immediately maintain blood pressure and diuresis with normal-saline Clerical checks Samples to blood bank Cardiac monitoring Full blood counts coagulation test - Platelets ,fibrinogen ,APTT, D dimers chemistries of renal and liver function urinalysis
How to prevent acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
Meticulous compatibility test
proper patient identification from sample collection to blood administration
