This mechanism of drug related hemolysis is less severe with penicillin and most severe with Cefotetan. Which mechanism is it?
a) Drug Adsorption
b) Immune Complex
c) Membrane Modification
d) Drug-Independent Auto Anti-body
Drug Adsorption
Drugs: Cefotetan, streptomyocin, penicilin
Drug- Adsorption:
- Drugs attach to RBC membrane
- Antibody directed to drug causes destrution of RBC
- IgG no compliment
- Hemolysis yes (tea color in blood)
- extravascular to intravasular
Which transfusion recommendation is appropriately matched to its autoantibody diagnosis?
a) Darzalex - don’t transfuse
b) WAIHA - transfuse with blood warmer
c) CAD - wash the cells
d) Cefotetan - transfuse as normal
Cefotetan - transfuse as normal
Cefotetan usually given during surgery prophylactically.
Hemolysis appears 7-10days laster with anemia <4g. Second does is usally fatal.
Darzalex - chemotherapy drug; transfusing them is perfectly fine. (give them blood all the time)
WAIHA - Warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia - we cannot transfuse, not even with a blood warmer, because its already a warm acting antibody. You have to consult with a pathologist and the doctor and they have to sign a form. B/C any thing you try to give to them will be incompatible, and lysis, and make their system worse!
CAD - Cold agglutinate, we need to warm the blood. We warm before we give it to the patient that way we don’t activate hemolysis.
Cefotetan is a medication reaction, where it cause the tea color in serum, support the transfusion, but stop the drug.
