What is considered a successful % of recovery for deglycerolized red blood cells stored in AS-1 or AS-3
> 80%
What are three methods for determining that adequacy of glycerol removal from thawed red blood cells
- Hue check-comparing the color of the final wash with a color comparator
- Hand held refractometer-small amount of supernatant is transferred to a measuring prism and held against a light source; the refraction value should be less than 30 to ensure that the glycerol level is <1%.
- Osmolality-a small amount of supernatant is transferred to an osmometer curette; the value should not exceed 400mOsm/Kg H20 to ensure the glycerol level is <1%.

Pooled Cryoprecipated AHF must contain a minimum of ________mg of fibrinogen and ______IU of Factor VIII X__________
150 mg of fibrinogen and 80 IU of Factor VIII x the number of components in the pool
AABB Standards for Blood Banks and Transfusion Services required that sufficient plasma remain with the platelet concentrate to maintain the pH at ______ or higher for the entire storage period.
This pH level usually requires a minimum of 35 ml of plasma, but 50 to 70 ml is preferable.
6.2

3 months
A person who is not a prior resident of a malaria-endemic country and travels to a malaria-endemic area is deferred for _______after departure from that area.
3 months
True or False
In the April 2020 Malaria Guidance from the FDA, it states you may collect platelet and/or plasma components from a donor who is a resident of a non-endemic country and who has traveled to or through a malaria endemic area without a deferral period, provided the blood component are pathogen reduced using an FDA approved pathogen reduction device effective against Plasmodium falciparum (and the donor meets all other eligibility criteria).
True
vCJD
A person who spent more than______in the UK between the years of _____ and ______ is deferred for how long?
3 months/1980-1996/indefinitely
What is the difference between the guidance for vCJD for UK and the April 2020 Guidance for France and Ireland?
The previous guidance include the UK and Northern Ireland, but not Ireland and France.
The time frame is 1980-2001.
If a person spent cumulative time adding up to 5 years or more. The UK guidance is 3 months or more.
The deferral is indefinite.
What is the deferral period for pregnancy?
A female that is pregnant now or has been pregnant in the past 6 weeks is deferred for the safety of the donor.
True or False
A person who has had malaria is deferred for three years after becoming asymptomatic while residing in a malaria-endemic country.
False; they are deferred for three years after becoming asymptomatic and living in a non-endemic country.
Give one example of a permanent deferral.
