acquired B phenomena

Test patient serum against autologous RBCs, this will yield a

A

negative
reaction.

142
Q

Protein or plasma abnormalities resulting to rouleaux formation

A

Group III Discrepancies

143
Q

Discrepancies both forward and reverse typing but it has factors
to consider. It is caused by protein or plasma abnormalities and it
can be resulted in pseudoagglutination or rouleaux formation

A

group 3

144
Q

group 3 discrepancies

A
  1. Elevated levels of globulin from certain disease: -
    Multiple myeloma – increased in IgG -
    Waldenstroms macroglobulinemia – increased in IgM
  2. Elevated levels of fibrinogen
  3. Plasma expanders such as dextran or polyvinylpyrrolidone
  4. Whartons Jelly

Q

Resolution of Common Group 3 Discrepancies

A

Perform saline dilution or saline replacement technique.
Wash cord cells six to eight times with NSS.

148
Q

Miscellaneous -
It is also between the forward and reverse grouping that is due to
the miscellaneous problems.

GROUP IV DISCREPANCIES

149
Q

GROUP IV DISCREPANCIES

A
  1. Polyagglutination
  2. Cold reactive antibodies
  3. Unexpected ABO isoagglutinins
  4. Antibodies other than anti-A and anti-B
  5. RBCs with cis “AB phenotype”
150
Q

– these are antibodies produced by an individual
that cause agglutination of RBCs with other individual

A

Isoagglutinins

151
Q

mmutation in glycosyltransferases in AB phenotype

A

cis AB phenotype

152
Q

Resolution of Common Group 4 Discrepancies

A

Potent cold autoantibodies can cause spontaneous agglutination of
the patient’s cells.

RBCs could be incubated at 37°C for a short period, then washed with
NSS and retyped.

If not successful in resolving forward type, treat patient’s RBC with
0.01M dithiothreitol to disperse to IgM related agglutination.

As for the serum, the reagent RBCs and serum can be warmed to
37°C then mixed, retested and read at 37°C.

If the reverse typing is negative – Autoabsorption is done to remove
autoantibody.

153
Q

in group 4

If the reverse typing is negative – ___ is done to remove
autoantibody.

A

Autoabsorption
