How would a cell (forward) and serum (back) typing tests result in for a pt with blood ABO group type A?
forward: anti-A positive, anti-B negative
back: A cells negative, B cells positive

due to the presence of A antigen on rbc's and anti-B in the serum
How would a cell (forward) and serum (back) typing tests result in for a pt with blood ABO group type AB?
forward: Anti-A positive, Anti-B positive
backward: A and B cells negative

due to the presence of A and B antigen on rbc's and lack of any Ab's in the serum
How would a cell (forward) and serum (back) typing tests result in for a pt with blood ABO group type O?
forward: anti-A and anti-B negative
back: A cells positive, B cells positive

due to no ABO antigens present on rbc's and both anti-A and anti-B present in the serum
in cell (forward) typing, pt's cells are 4+ for anti-A and negative for anti-B.
in serum (Back) typing, pt's cells are negative for A cells, and 4+ for B cells.

what is your interpretation?

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
A
the most common ABO type, regardless of ethnic background is:

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
C.
A patient with type O blood would be able to receive rbc's from (choose as many as possible):

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
C.
a patient with blood type A would only be able to receive rbc's from (choose as many as possible):

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
A, C
A patient with type AB blood would be able to receive plasma from:

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
D
A patient with type B blood would be able to receive plasma from (select as many as possible):

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
B,D
A patient with type O blood would be able to receive plasma from (select as many as possible):

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
all the above - a patient with type O blood has antibodies for A and B in serum. when the patient needs to receive plasma, the plasma can come from O (that makes sense), A and B (which will have anti-B and anti-A, respectively, which won't do anything to the O antigen rbcs). AB will have no antibodies present in serum, so that this serum, of course, is the universal donor.
This blood type is known as the universal donor for rbc's:

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
C. type O has no immunogenic antigens on its rbc surfaces, so it won't react with the serum Ab's of anyone else blood, regardless of type.
This blood type is known as the universal recipient:

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
D. type AB blood cells have no antibodies in serum, so whichever plasma type you give to a patient with type AB blood, they can accept it without an adverse transfusion reaction.
This blood type is known as the universal donor when it comes to plasma:

a. blood type A
b. blood type B
c. blood type O
d. blood type AB
D. The plasma of type AB blood cells will have no Ab's. Therefore, this is the easiest serum to give to others as it will not produce any adverse transfusion reactions, regardless of recipient blood type.
In clinical settings, which antigen is most associated with the Rh system?

a. D antigen
b. C antigen
c. E antigen
d. B antigen
A. D antigen is the most immunogenic (in other words, it matters the most when it comes to preventing transfusion reactions).
In Rh typing, the lab results came back as follows: ABO blood type group A. No agglutination reaction when anti-D reagent was added to blood.

The patient's Rh type is:

a. positive
b. negative
c. neither
B.
Of the following ethnic groups, which have the highest % of positive Rh phenotypes?

a. caucasians
b. africans
c. asians
d. hispanics
C. (99% of Asians are Rh positive)
A genotype of Dd means:

a. Rh positive
b. Rh negative
c. neither
A.
A genotype of dd means:

a. Rh positive
b. Rh negative
c. neither
B.
A genotype of DD means:

a. Rh positive
b. Rh negative
c. neither
A.
Rh negative individuals acquire anti-Rh:

a. prior to birth
b. at birth
c. at pregnancy
d. at transfusion of Rh positive RBCs
e. two of the above (name them!)
E. at pregnancy and at transfusion of Rh pos rbc's are one of the only reasons why a Rh negative individual will become sensitized (acquire anti-Rh). It never happens spontaneously, unlike RBO blood type antigens (which antibodies form at 5-6 months of age).
To avoid conditions such as the hemolytic disease of the newborn associated with Rh, an Rh negative mother with no anti-D present in serum, after giving birth to an Rh positive baby, should receive Rh immunoglobulin:

a. at 28 weeks gestation
b. within 72 hours after delivery
c. within 1 week after delivery
d. at 28 weeks gestation AND within 72 hours after delivery
e. at 28 weeks gestation AND within 1 week after delivery
D.

a. red blood cell transfusion
b. fresh frozen plasma transfusion

a. red blood cell transfusion
b. fresh frozen plasma transfusion
c. platelet transfusion
d. cryoprecipitate
C. Platelet transfusions are useful to control/prevent bleeding associated with low platelet count or functional defects (one unit will increase 5,000 platelets!!).
Platelet transfusions are useful for all of the following EXCEPT:

a. immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)
b. patients undergoing chemotherapy for leukemia
c. aplastic anemia
d. None of the above (they are all indications for platelet transfusions)
