Q

what DAT results are most consistent with a diagnosis of CAD

A

positive poly reaction and C3d, negative IgG
- Poly is specific for compliment and IgG
- col autoimmune = IgM = IgG will be negative

17
Q

match the drug responsible for: drug independent
- cefotetan

18
Q

if you have a DAT result that is IgG negative and compliment positive, and the serum in the sample is tea colored, what should you suspect is causing this
- WAIHA
- immune complex with a drug
- Darzalex
- nonspecific cold agglutinatin

A

immune complex with a drug
- drug induced antibodies appear like warm auto antibodies
- hemolysis is characterized by tea colored plasma

19
Q

other than transfusion, what treatment might help a patient with autoimmunehemolytic anemia?
- plasma exchange
- antibody titer
- emergency release of O negative blood
- antibody adsorption

A

plasma exchange
- removes auto antibodies from patient

20
Q

a positive donath landstener result indicates which diagnosis
- WAIHA
- PCH
- PNH
- CAD

A

PCH: paroxysmal cold hemoglobinruia
- anti-P in urethra

21
Q

which of the following tests DOES NOT have to be performed for a patient to receive an electronic crossmathc
- Unit ABO retype
- blood type on previous sample
- antibody screen on current sample
- antibody screen on donor unit

A

anitbody screen on donor unit
- donor unit is only cells, cannot run an antibody screen
- abo retype on patient must be done and must match history
- patient must have a negative antibody screen

22
Q

after a unit is issued, how long does the nurse have to infuse the whole product into the patient
- 30 min
- 2 hr
- 4 hr
- 24 hr

A

4 hours
- transfusion must take 4 or less hours
- transfusion can begin right before expiration date on donor bag and still be fine

23
Q

which of the following components are acceptable to return to your blood bank inventory
- spiked, unused RBC w/ temp of 8C
- RBC w/ clot removed from the filter temp of 4.5C
- RBC with indicator dot red at 2.3C
- RBC out of blood bank for 30 min with white temp dot at 7.6C

A

rbc out of bank for 30min with white dot at 7.6C

24
Q

which of the following samples are acceptable for add-on crossmatch?
- 4 days old, A pos, neg screen
- 1 day old, O pos, pos screen
- 2 days old, nu current screen results
- 3 days old, AB neg, neg screen, history of anti-Fya

A

1 day old, O pos, pos screen
3 day old, AB neg, history Fya

25
Q

choose all that apply: under which circumstance would you warm a cross match
- A neg, neg screen , pos IS crossmatch
- O pos, anti-M ID
- O neg, anti-D ID
- ABO discrepancy, extra reverse reactivity

A
  • A neg, neg screen, pos IS crossmatch
  • O pos, anti-M
26
Q

the last 3 patients in a row have given eng reactions with anti-A, this type of error is most likely:
- coincidence
- pt sample error
- systematic error
- delta error

A

systematic
