Unit 6 Flashcards
How should whole blood be matched
must be type specific
What is the ratio of anticoagulant in WB
14:100
What does washing RBCs do
washed with saline, removes almost all plasma proteins, microaggregates, plts and WBCs
What patients need washed RBCs
hypersensitivity to plasma proteins
IgA deficient recipients
neonates
Why are RBCs sometimes frozen, what preservative is used to do this
for rare blood types and autologous donors
glycerol
What is the purpose of deglycerolizing RBCs after thawing them
washed with saline in decreasing concentrations until 0.9% isotonic. Can’t throw off blood osmo
How long does it take to LR blood with a filter?
What is the purpose of LR
72 hrs
reduces TRALI
febrile reactions
alloimmunization if transplant HLA
Removes CMV
prevent GvHD
What are the 4 ways RBCs can be leukoreduced
during donor collection
after donor collection, before storage
Right before transfusion
During transfusion
What patients need LR blood?
immunodeficient
BM transplant
donated by family member
fetus
What is the main WBC of concern in LR?
T lymphs
What coagulation factor is higher when plasma is frozen withing 24hrs of collection
factor VIII
What diseases are plasma donations NOT useful for
VWF disease- primary hemostasis, coag factors are all secondary
What blood product is needed in:
Liver disease
Warfarin
MTP
DIC
transfuse FFP
What is plasma that has never been frozen called
liquid plasma
What is PF24 labelled as once thawed
thawed plasma
What factors are in cryo
VIII, VWF, FBG, XIII fibronectin
What blood product is needed in
Factor XIII deficiency
FBG deficiency
VWD
Fibrin glue
DIC
cryoprecipitate
Hemophilia A is a deficiency of factor
VIII
What is the difference between plasma and cryo
cryo is thawed plasma that has been spun and the plasma is taken off, it is the precipitate of plasma
What does a soft spin and a hard spin do
soft- plt rich plasma
hard- removes/ express off plasma
What should you do to plts after the are prepared before putting them on the agitator
let them sit 1 hr, to avoid activating them
Why are plts pooled
usually before transfusion
What blood product is needed in
thrombocytopenia
MTP
surgical patients
Random donor plts
What patients should not receive random donor plts
TTP- abs directed against plts
ITP- idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura
DIC- consume plts too fast
How to choose compatible plts
ABO and Rh compatible
most places don’t care about Rh
IF a pt was transfused with plts 1 hour ago, but a CBC shows no rise in plts, what likely cause
Plts refractoriness
need special single donor HLA class 1 matched transfusion
What are plts collected by apheresis
very concentrated plts collected from a single donor
What QC is needed for plt products
testing for bacteria
min >3 x 10^11 plts
> 6.2 pH at expiration
no aspirin 72hrs before collection
What pts need granulocyte concentrates
BM transplant or certain cancers
How are granulocyte concentrates collected
apheresis
What requirements for granulocyte concentrates
> 1 x 10^10 granulocytes
XM
IR
donor receives steroids
What blood product is needed if
Pt is unresponsive to antibiotic therapy, neonates especially
BM transplant
granulocytic dysfunction
Neutropenic chemo pts
granulocyte concentrates
What is PCC factor concentrate
prothrombin complex concentrate
What are NSA and PPF
volume expanders
Normal serum albumin
Plasma protein fraction
What coagulation factor concentrates are given
VIII, IX, VIIa
What are immune serum globulins that can be given
hep B
Rh
What activates the intrinsic pathway
contact activation from damaged blood vessel
What activates the extrinsic pathway
TF
What pathway is
12, 11, 9, 8
Intrinsic
What pathway is
7, TF
Extrinsic
What proteins are in the coagulation cascade and where in it are they
Proteins C, S in common pathway
What coagulation factors are vitamin K dependent
2, 7, 9, 10
Why are coag factor concentrates heated
reduces risk of HBV, HCV and HIV
What pts might need factor VIII concentrates
Hemophilia A
VWD
What should you give a pt that is forming factor VIII antibodies
five them factor VIIa- activates extrinsic pathway
What type of plasma gives
factor VIII concentrate
Faactor IX concentrate
VIII- derived or recombinant plasma
IX- pooled plasma or recombinant
What blood product should you give a pt with hemophilia B
factor IX concentrate
What blood product should give in
hemorrhagic pt
hemophilia A
to contradict coumadin or warfarin
bypass factor VIII antibodies
factor VII deficiency
traumas and MTPs
Liver transplant
Factor VIIa concentrate
What does PCC contain
factor 2, 7, 9 and 10, vitamin K dependents
Why would you give a pt PCC
factor VIII inhibitor
warfarin reversal
What are volume expanders for
maintain colloidal osmotic pressure in vascular system
during surgery
What are the 3 main goals of blood storage and preservation
maintain viability and function
prevent physical changes
minimize bacterial contamination
