Donated products have to be tested for (allogeneic)
|
ABO group
Rh type syphilis HbsAg HIV NAT HCV NAT anti-HIV-1 anti-HIV-2 anti-HBc anti-HCV anti-HTLV-I/II |
|
Donated units require serological testing for syphilis; the spirochete survives in the refrigerated units?
|
- unknown how long the spirochete survives at refrigerated temp in a naturally infected unit
- studies show that survival at 4C is dependent on concentration |
|
confirmatory testing for HIV
|
Western blot (most common confirmatory test for EIA-reactive anti-HIV tests)
- most infected people have Ab to almost all of the various viral gene products: 1. gag proteins: p17, p24, p55 2. pol proteins: p31, p51, p66 3. env glycoproteins: gp41, gp120. gp 160 Result: +, -, indeterminate +: reactive w/ at least 2 of the following - p24 core protein - gp41 transmembrane protein - gp120/160 external protein and external precursor protein |
|
an immunofluorescence assay (IFA) can serve as an alternate confirmatory test for + anti-HIV EIA?
|
yes
- test involves HIV infected cells |
|
How is a + anti-HTLV EIA confirmed?
|
Not Western blotting!
Use another manufacturer's anti-HTLV EIA!! - if the second EIA is + = confirmed positive - if the second EIA is - = the first is considered a false positive!! |
|
anit-CMV testing is required by the AABB?
|
NO!
- it is a commonly performed optional test |
|
ISBT 128
|
- a standardized labeling system that uses bar-coded labels that can be read by blood centers and transfusion services around the world
- internationally defined system using bar-code symbology called Code 128 |
|
Whole blood contains __
|
- all blood elements + anticoagulant-preservative in the collecting bag
|
|
Minimum HCT of a whole blood unit?
|
33%
|
|
pRBC w/out AS (in CPD, CP2D, CDPA-1 alone) must have a HCT of ___
pRBCs w/ AS will have a HCT of ___ |
- 80% or less
- w/ AS, get a HCT between 55% - 65% (facilitates flow rates and eases administration) |
|
amount of AS in a 450 ml pRBC unit vs 500 ml pRBC unit
|
450 ml unit - 100 cc AS
500 ml unit - 110 cc AS |
|
Additive solutions extend the RBC shelflife to ___
|
42 days
|
|
AS-1
AS-3 AS-5 |
AS-1
- Adsol AS-3 - Nutricel (no mannitol) (citrate present) AS-5 - Optisol |
|
Shelflife
CPD CP2D CPDA-1 |
Shelflife
CPD - 21d CP2D - 21d CPDA-1 - 35d (adding the adenine) |
|
platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) is prepared within __ hrs of collection of the whole blood unit
|
8hrs
|
|
whole blood derived platelets are prepared by __
|
- soft spin (PRP)
- hard spin (platelet concentrate, FFP) |
|
plasma can be prepared from a whole blood unit up to ___ days after the ___ date
|
up to 5 days AFTER the expiration date
|
|
There is a difference between Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) and Plasma Frozen Within 24 Hours after Phlebotomy
|
FFP - plasma prepared within 8 hours of collection and frozen at -18C up to 12 months or at -65C up to 7 years
- Plasma Frozen Within 24 Hours after Phlebotomy - prepared between 8 and 24 hours after collection and frozen -18C for 12 months |
|
FFP Thawed
Plasma Frozen Within 24 Hours after Phlebotomy Thawed |
both expire at 24hrs (with this label)
For FFP Thawed: If NOT transfused w/in 24hrs the lable MUST be modified to read "Thawed Plasma" |
|
Thawed Plasma versus FFP Thawed
|
"Thawed Plasma" is "FFP Thawed" that has been thawed for more than 24 hours
- expires 5 days after thawing - has less Facter V and VIII (esp VIII) compared to FFP |
