Applied Health Sciences Technology Blood Banking (HLBB-401)  Learning Objectives Define blood bank ,blood transfusion ,blood donor ,blood recipient & AABB. Enumerate different instruments must be present in blood bank. Discuss AABB standers for blood bank refrigerators, freezer & ultra deep freezer. Discuss the function of blood monitor , plasma extractor & platelets agitator.  Introduction Blood bank: Blood banks collect, test, and store blood. Blood donor: a person who gives blood for transfusion Blood transfusion: - Is the transfer of blood or blood products from one person (donor) into another person's blood stream (recipient). - This is usually done as a life saving maneuver.  AABB (American Association of Blood Banks) Formation 1947  How much blood is donated each year? AABB estimates that 6.8 million volunteers donate blood each year at AABB member blood centers and hospital blood collection sites About 13.6 million units of whole blood and red blood cells were donated in the United States in 2013.  Every three minutes there is someone around the world needs blood transfusion. One of ten patients in the hospital needs blood transfusion. Blood Banking Instrumentations  Donation Chair. Blood bags. Blood collection mixer. Tube sealer Blood Bank Refrigerator (1-8c). Plasma Freezer (-30c). Platelet agitator Plasma Extractor. Plasma thawing water bath. Refrigerated centrifuge (4 and 6 bucket).  Blood Donor Chair The Blood Donor chairs is used in various application such as Blood collection chair for collection of Blood, Blood donation chair for donation of Blood. Blood Donor Chair  Blood Donation Camping Cot The camping cot is useful in outdoor camps for collection of blood. Blood Donation Camping Cot Blood Collection Monitor  Blood Collection Monitor Blood mixer, ideally suited for blood collections in donation room as well as outdoor camps. Ensure smooth & gentle mixing process, volume accuracy, precise monitoring of time & flow rate. Blood Collection Monitor  Blood Tube Sealer The Blood Tube sealer seals the tube of blood bag without causing hemolysis and leakage of blood. The seal is wide and can be separated or teared with little or no force. Blood Tube Sealer Blood Tube Sealer  Blood Bank Refrigerator Various Types of Blood Bank Refrigerator: (1) Vertical Blood Bank Refrigerator (2) Double Door Vertical Blood Bank Refrigerator (3) Horizontal Blood Bank Refrigerator (4) Solar Blood Bank Refrigerator Blood Bank Refrigerator  Blood Bank Refrigerator The typical set point for Blood Bank Refrigerators is 4°C. Per AABB Standards. The acceptable temperature for storage of whole blood and most red cell components is 1°C to 6°C. Setting the temperature to 4ºC is standard practice for blood bank refrigeration.  Blood Bank Refrigerator The refrigerator is designed with a heavy-duty, forced-air refrigeration system. The temperature uniformity of the refrigerator is +/-1ºC  Blood Bank Refrigerated Centrifuge Blood Bank Refrigerated centrifuges are designed for separating blood components from whole blood like platelet ,plasma, RBC and cryoprecipitate Blood Bank Refrigerated Centrifuge  Plasma Freezer AABB Standards specify plasma components should be stored at -18°C or colder (should be stored ≤ -18ºC ). When stored within this temperature range, the expiration date is 12 months from collection.  for storage of blood or blood components, the temperature shall be monitored continuously and recorded at least every 4 hours. (AABB Standard ) Plasma Freezer  Ultra Low Deep Freezer ULT freezers: A ULT freezer can reach -86 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for long-term storage. It can store red blood cells, tissues, plasma and other laboratory samples.  Plasma thawing Bath How To Thaw Plasma Bags & Samples Preheat a water bath to 36 degrees Celsius, then place the frozen plasma sample directly into the water. Agitate the sample gently every five to 10 minutes to ensure uniform thawing. The ideal thawing time will depend on the plasma sample volume Once thawed, the plasma should be used immediately or refrigerated at 4 degrees Celsius for up to five days. Do not store liquid or thawed plasma directly on ice or below zero degrees Celsius, as this can lead to clotting. You should also inspect the plasma bag for signs of precipitation, contamination or clotting before using it for testing, research or medical applications Plasma thawing Bath Plasma Expressor Extractor  Plasma Expressor / Extractor The Manual Plasma Extractor provides constant pressure from the bottom of the Blood-Pack Unit to the top, to extract plasma or platelet blood components from centrifuged whole blood  Platelet Agitator Platelet agitators are designed for storage of platelet concentrates and are designed to provide continuous gentle horizontal motion to the packs, typically at a fixed speed and at a temperature of 20–24 °C. Platelet Agitator Platelet Agitator Quiz  QUIZ The typical set point for Blood Bank Refrigerators is..............
