Lecture 14 (on final) Flashcards
Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) should be ____________ with the recipient
ABO compatible (ignore Rh)
What is the volume range of Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) transfused into a patient?
50-200mL
What is in Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP)?
Factor VIII, Factor IX, Fibrinogen, Albumin, Globulin
What temperature do you store Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP)?
-20C
What temperature do you keep thawed Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP)?
4C (modern = 5 days; old af = 24 hrs)
When should plasma be frozen?
within 8 hrs of collection
What is oncotic pressure?
pressure that keeps water in the plasma
Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) is hyper____(3) and hypo____(1)
- hyperosmolal (pressure)
- hyperglycemic (glucose)
- hypernatremic (sodium)
- hypochloremic (chlorine)
What are Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) indications (people who would need it???)?
- single clotting factor deficiency
- multiple clotting factors deficiencies (DIC)
- massive transfusions
- warfarin overdose
- hemorrhagic disease of neonates
- TTP
- liver failure
What is cryoprecipitate?
a concentrate of cold and insoluble high-molecular-weight plasma proteins
What is the most common reason for use of cryoprecipitate?
fibrinogen replacement
What diseases are treated with cryoprecipitate?
- Fibrinogen replacement
- Factor VIII deficiency (Hemophilia A)
- von Willebrand’s Disease
- Congenital or acquired fibrinogen defects (dysfibrinogenemia)
How is cryoprecipitate made?
precipitates form when frozen plasma is slowly thawed at 1-6C
What blood clotting proteins does cryoprecipitate contain?
- Fibrinogen
- Factor VIII
- Facttor XIII
- Von Willebrand Factor (VWF)
Can cryoprecipitate be refrozen?
no
How long can you store thawed cryoprecipitate?
6 hrs
What is cryoprecipitate reduced? What does this treat?
- leftover plasma in cryoprecipitate
- used for treating Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP)
What is plasma 24?
plasma thawed within 24 hrs
Is plasma thawed past 5 days still theraputic?
yes, it just has less factor V and factor VIII
What deficiency is NOT treated with plasma?
Congenital Coagulation Factor Deficiency
(NEED A LOT or would cause volume overload if you used enough to be therapeutic)
