    Study Notes

    Course Objectives

    • Understand principles of Immunohematology, including blood collection, processing, preservation, and distribution.
    • Perform blood grouping and compatibility testing accurately in Immunohematology.
    • Explain Blood Bank operations and organization concepts.
    • Demonstrate quality assurance in Immunohematology testing.
    • Apply immunohematological knowledge to real-life situations through case studies.

    Blood Banking Overview

    • Involves activities ensuring proper collection, preservation, storage, and dispensing of blood for transfusions.
    • Transfusion Medicine focuses on the proper use of blood and components to treat or prevent diseases.

    Blood Transfusion

    • Transfusion is the process of inserting blood or components from one individual into another's circulatory system.
    • Types include:
      • Autologous transfusion: donor and recipient are the same.
      • Allogenic transfusion: transferred blood is from a different donor.
    • Component therapy targets specific blood components for patient needs.

    Historical Perspective

    • Blood transfusion has roots in prehistoric rituals and practices dating back to ancient civilizations.
    • Key historical milestones include:
      • 1492: First recorded blood transfusion to Pope Innocent VII.
      • 1628: William Harvey's work on blood circulation.
      • 1666: Richard Lower's successful canine blood transfusion.
      • 1816: John Henry Leacock's published work on blood transfusion in hemorrhage.
      • 1829: James Blundell's successful human transfusion for postpartum hemorrhage.

    ABO Blood Group Discovery

    • 1901: Karl Landsteiner discovers ABO blood groups, paving the way for safe transfusions.

    Anticoagulant Preservative Solutions Evolution

    • 1914: Albert Hustin uses sodium citrate as an anticoagulant.
    • 1943: Rous and Turner introduce citrate-dextrose solution for blood preservation.
    • 1957: Gibson develops citrate-phosphate-dextrose (CPD) solution.

    Blood Preservation Goals

    • Aim to maintain the viability of blood components post-transfusion.
    • RBCs should show 75% survival after 24 hours of transfusion.
    • Optimal RBC storage temperature: 10°C to 60°C, determined by preservative solutions used.

    RBC Storage Lesions

    • Quality indicators include decreased viable cells, glucose, and ATP, along with increased lactic acid and a left shift in the oxygen dissociation curve.

    Anticoagulant Solutions and Their Functions

    • Chemicals include:
      • Citrate: Prevents clotting by binding calcium.
      • Sodium phosphate: Maintains pH and supports 2,3-DPG levels.
      • Dextrose: Provides energy.
      • Adenine: Extends shelf-life by ATP production.

    Additive Solutions

    • Added post-plasma removal to enhance storage life and nutritional content of RBCs.
    • Developed in 1970; benefits include extended shelf life of up to 42 days.

    Freezing and Rejuvenation of RBCs

    • Freezing is crucial for autologous units and rare blood type storage.
    • Rejuvenating solutions restore ATP and 2,3-DPG levels, enhancing RBC functionality.

    Notable Additive Solutions

    • ADSOL (AS-1): Contains SAGM, providing a shelf-life of 42 days.
    • NUTRICEL (AS-3): Similar composition, also with a shelf-life of 42 days.
    • OPTISOL (AS-5): Advanced formulation aiming for lower hemolysis and extended shelf life.

    Rejuvenation Processes

    • Utilizes specific solutions (PIGPA ingredients) to restore RBC effectiveness.
    • RBCs can be rejuvenated at room temperature or opened up to 3 days post-outdate.

    Conclusion

    • Blood banking and transfusion practices have significantly evolved over centuries, enhancing patient care and safety.
    • Understanding these processes is crucial for effective immunohematology practice.
