Study Notes
Blood Types & Transfusions
-
Blood Type O negative is considered the universal donor because it lacks the A and B antigens and the Rh factor, meaning it can be given to individuals with any blood type without causing an immune reaction.
-
Blood Type AB positive is considered the universal recipient because it has both A and B antigens and the Rh factor, meaning it can receive blood from any blood type without causing an immune reaction.
Blood Transfusion
-
ABO blood group system is the most important one used for blood transfusions.
-
Hemoglobin level of 7 g/dL is an acceptable threshold for perioperative red blood cell transfusion.
-
Hypothermia is a common complication of massive transfusion.
-
Fevers are a common symptom of febrile non-hemolytic transfusion reaction.
-
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) can manifest with symptoms like dyspnea, hypoxia, and pulmonary edema.
-
Transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease (TA-GVHD) can lead to complications including skin rash, diarrhea, and liver dysfunction.
-
Hemolytic transfusion reaction can cause symptoms like fever, chills, back pain, and hemoglobinuria.
Blood Storage & Shelf Life
-
CPD (Citrate Phosphate Dextrose) blood has a shelf life of 35 days when stored at 1-6 degrees Celsius.
-
Autologous blood stored at 2-6°C has a shelf life of 35 days.
Blood Substitutes and Other Considerations
-
Blood substitutes are still under development.
-
Oxygen-carrying solutions are being investigated as a potential alternative to blood transfusion.
-
Donor criteria includes age, weight, medical history, and lifestyle, to ensure the safety of the recipient.
-
Non-immunological complications of blood transfusion include iron overload and hypothermia.
