|
Defend the rational for pre-donation screening |
enhance safety for the blood recipient and the blood donor |
|
PRBC prep |
-leuko-reduction -washed -pooled |
|
FFP prep |
plasma that is removed from a donor, separated, and placed in freezer w/in 8 h of collection (or 6 h, ifACD is the anticoagulant/preservative) |
|
PLT prep |
-leuko-reduction -washed -pooled |
|
Cryoprecipitate prep |
-thawed FFP @ refrigerated T --if pooled using closed system, once thawed, use w/in 6 h --if pooled using open system, once thawed, use w/in 4 h |
|
Use of leuko-reduction (LR) of both RBCs & PLTs |
-neonates -transplant recipients -pts w/ history of FNHTRs |
|
Use of irradiation |
To prevent Transfusion Associated Graft vs Host Disease (TV-GVHD) (gamma irradiation prevents T cell proliferation) -fetal & neonatal recipients -immunocomp pts -recipients of blood components from blood relative -marrow, stem cell transplant recipient -recipients receiving HLA-matched donor components |
|
Use of cryoprecipitate |
*cold insoluble ppt containing FI, FVIII, FXIII, vWF & fibronectin -bleeding associated w/ FI deficiency (<100 mg/dL) &/or FXIII deficiency, & volume issues prevent use of FFP -2nd line therapy for severe vWD & hemophilia A |
|
Use of RBC & platelet washing |
RBCs: -IgA deficient pts -neonates -fetus (intrauterine transfusion) PLTs: -IgA deficient pts -pts w/ severe life threatening plasma allergies uncontrollable w/ meds |
|
Use of red cell rejuvenation |
*soln containing phosphate, pyruvate, inosine & adenine -to restore 2,3-DPG and ATP levels in RBCs collected in CPD or CPDA-1 during storage or w/in 3 days after expiration, extends freezing exp date (longer than a yr), extends transfusion date |
|
Blood typing |
-classification of blood based on presence or absence of Ags on surface of RBCs |
|
Detection and ID of antibodies |
-Screen: detects Ab to Ag resulting from exposure to red cells through transfusion & pregnancy -ID: determines Ab specificity for Ab or Abs detected in Ab screen |
|
Compatibility testing |
-detect unexpected Abs in the pt/ prevent transfusion rxn (2nd check of Ab screen) -establish ABO comp between pt & blood products/ maximize in vivo RBC survival (2nd check of ABO errors) |
|
Quality control in BB |
-to determine whether analytical phase of testing is working properly |
|
Rationalize additional testing of samples in cases of incomplete antibody workups |
|
|
Anti-A,B (non-routine) use |
used for O donor units |
|
Antiglobulin (AHG) mechanism & use |
cross-links IgG sensitized RBCs |
|
Bovine serum albumin (BSA) mechanism & use |
reduces zeta potential & membrane hydration |
|
Low ionic strength saline (LISS) mechanism & use |
lowers ionic strength, incr rate of Ab uptake |
|
Polyethylene glycol (PEG) mechanism & use |
lowers ionic strength, enhance Ab uptake, concentrates Ab |
|
Proteolytic enzymes: papain, ficin & bromealin mechanism & use |
reduces RBC zeta potential by removing neg charges; destroys some RBC Ag |
|

binds A1 Ag |
|
Ulex europaeus |
binds H Ag |
|
Vicia graminea |
binds N Ag |
|

-T&S -XM (O, Rh neg when XM not done) |
|
Autologous blood transfusion - need for and/or type of compatibility testing req & recommend steps |
-ABO & Rh only -Infectious disease testing ONLY IF transfused outside collection facility (may transfuse viral positive blood w/ permissions) |
|
Red cell transfusion of infant less than 4 mo - need for and/or type of compatibility testing req & recommend steps |
-ABO (no reverse type-no production of Ab) & Rh only -Ab screen: if pos=give Ag neg blood or IAT XM-compatible blood; if neg=NO XM as long as O RBCs are transfused -If a non-group O neonate is to receive non-group O RBCs NOT comp w/ maternal ABO group, neonate's serum/plasma is tested for anti-A or anti-B |
|
Non-red cell products - need for and/or type of compatibility testing req & recommend steps |
-Plasma: not usually XM (unless sig RBCs in plasma/PLTs) -PLTs: not usually XM |
|
ABO compatibilities for WB, RBCs & Plasma/PLT transfusions |
-PRBCs: same ABO/Rh type otherwise compatible -Rh-neg to Rh-neg (exceptions, not clin sig: anti-A1, anti-P1, anti-Lu^a, anti-M or anti-N) |
