    Study Notes

    Blood Banking and Transfusion Medicine

    • Blood banking refers to the process of collecting, testing, and storing blood and its components for transfusion.
    • Transfusion medicine is concerned with the safe and effective use of blood and its components for transfusion, including the collection, testing, and distribution of blood products.

    Types of Transfusions

    • Allogenic transfusion refers to the transfer of blood or its components from one individual to another, which is the most common type of transfusion.

    Blood Component Therapy

    • Component therapy involves the separation of whole blood into its components, such as red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, for transfusion to specific patients.

    Historical Methods of Blood Transfusion

    • The ancient method of bloodletting involved the donor's back being lanced multiple times, and capillary blood was extracted using suction cups.
    • In the 17th century, Richard Lower designed an apparatus for performing blood transfusion using multiple syringes and a special cannula for puncturing the vein through the skin.
    • The first human-to-human transfusion was performed by Jean-Baptiste Denys in 1667.
    • The direct method of transfusion involved collecting blood in a graduated flask and promptly transfusing it to the patient.

    Blood Typing and Anticoagulants

    • Karl Landsteiner discovered the ABO blood type system in 1901.
    • Carl Walter designed the first plastic blood bag in 1949.
    • In 1914, Hustin reported the use of sodium citrate as an anticoagulant solution for transfusions.

    Blood Collection Standards

    • According to AABB standards, the volume of whole blood collected for a 110lb/50kg donor is approximately 450-500 ml.
