when do we give colloids
hypoalbuminemia
how quickly do we administer fluid in acute situations
6-8 hours
what is the formula for transfusion amounts
BW * amount of blood (%) * (desired PCV - current PCV) / PCV of Donor
how much blood can you take from a donor

<18% acutely
<12% chronically
clinical signs
< 15% in SA

weakness, methemoglobinemia, normal PCV, intravascular hemolysis
how much blood can a horse lose and live
1/3 of their total blood BW * 8%
when do you do blood transfusions in dogs and cats
if PCV <15% in chronic cases
how do you tell the difference between infectious anemia and IMHA
infectious causes thrombocytopenia which is not seen in IMHA
signs of IMHA and infectious anemia
lethargy, anorexia, fever, icterus, splenomegly
what are treatments for IMHA
transfusion, prednisone, +- other immune suppressants ( azathioprine, myco, cyclosporine)
what do we need to remember about cyclosporine
