WK15: BTR Flashcards
Transfusion reaction happens within 24 hours post- transfusion
acute or delayed
transfusion reactions happens more than 24 hours, days, or weeks
delayed transfusion reaction
Acute Immune BTRs
Hemolytic
Non Hemolytic
Allergic
TRALI
Acute Non-immune BTR
Bacterial Contamination Circulatory Overload (TACO)
Delayed Immune BTR
Hemolytic
TAGVHD
PTP
Delayed non-immune BTRs
Iron Overload
Disease Transmission
Acute Immune mediated - usual type of hemolysis that happens is _______
intravascular
extravascular hemolysis is likely to happen
Delayed immune hemolytic
True or False:
host cell is the same as recipient cells
true
binds to the antigen of the transfused unit leading to an antibody
complex
IgM (or IgG)
Activation of the cascade will induce the lysis of the RBCs intravascularly due to
activation of the __________
membrane attack complex (MAC)
Systematic symptoms present when vasoactive amines are released
Vascular collapse, renal failure, bronchospasm
cause fever, hypotension and will lead to the activation of T and B cells
Cytokine activation
Hallmark of intravascular hemolysis
Hemoglobinemia and hemoglobinuria
True or False
In acute-immune mediated HTRs, the haptoglobins are high and the plasma free HgB and bilirubin are low
False
↑ plasma free Hgb, bilirubin
↓ haptoglobin
HgB tetramer can be reduced to your ______
hemoglobin dimer
When haptoglobin is binded to HgB it will be delivered to the ____
liver
“Febrile Nonhemolytic Transfusion Reaction”
Non-HTR Acute Immune mediated
Non-HTR Acute Immune mediated (FTR) Mechanism
HLA antibody in recipient attack the donor antigens
Recipient antibodies reacts to allergen found in blood component
Allergic Transfusion Reaction
Caused by genetic IgA deficiency
Anaphylactic Anaphylactoid (severe types)
Acute BTR presenting respiratory distress and severe hypoxemia during or within 6 hours of transfusion
TRALI
Donor antibodies attacks host neutrophils
One-Hit Theory TRALI
Transfused biologically active substances or antileukocytes
antibodies (anti-HLA Abs)
Two-Hit Theory TRALI
2°C or more increase in body temperature accompanied by
rigors and hypotension
Bacterial contamination Acute Non-Immune
Bacterial contamination is also called _____
Transfusion Associated Sepsis
most common organism known to be a bacterial contaminant in the blood unit?
Yersinia enterocolitica
too much blood in patient’s vascular system
TACO
Lab test of TACO
BNP Brain natriuretic peptide
ess severe than AIHTR, and dependent on the concentration of antibody in the blood rather than the type
HTR: Delayed Immune-mediated
antibodies involved in delayed HTRs
Rh, Duffy, Kidd
Donor lymphocytes attacks recipient cells
TAGVHD
Delayed BTR with profound thrombocytopenia and bleeding
PTP (post transfusion purpura)
Patient’s preformed platelet antibodies (recipient) attacks transfused cells coated with platelet antigen (antigen with the same specificity)
PTP Mechanism
Mist common Ag of PTP
HPA-Ia
For known patients who have experienced PTP, we will use components that are ________ for this type of antigen that may attack the preformed PLT Ab of the patient
antigen negative
Accumulation of iron deposits in organ
Iron overload - delayed non-immune
cause of iron overload
massive transfusion
basic testing includes:
Clerical check
hemolysis check
DAT
ABO testing
color of plasma that is positive for hemolysis
pink or reddish
in hemolysis check, if Hemolysis is present = ________
request redraw
Detects the presence of RBCs sensitized in vivo
DAT
done after hemolysis has been identified in the first batch of testing or basic testing
Secondary testing
If the pre-transfusion sample has no hemolysis we have to repeat _______, ______ and _____ of units with the post reaction sample
ABO Ab screening, crossmatching and antigen typing
Silent Transfusion-related adverse events are affected by:
Antigenic differences dose frequency of transfusion Patient’s immune status immunogenicity of donor HLA antigens
presence of Abs against CLASS I HLA ANTIGEN
Silent Transfusion-related adverse events
Tingling sensation
citrate toxicity
Tongue is numb, needling effect in the perioral area
Paresthesias
Anaphylactoid, bacterial contamination
Albumin replacement
