  1. dear all, heres a problem we at our blood bank did a blood group and found results anti A (NEG) ANTI B(NEG) ANTI D(POS) in reverse A CELLS (NEG) B CELLS (POS) O CELLS (NEG) . however we saw some very minute agglitinants in anti A which however disapperared after some seconds patients age was 65 and on asking he received no transfusion in the past please give the likelihoods thanx
  2. thanx every body i asked this question coz same incident happened at our facility when a couple of donors of the same family walked in for donation but as all of them were COUCH BREAKING HEAVY they were refused by our senior he gave some reasons that as all of them have the same problem they may have some genetic disorder and secondly there cholesterol levels may be high donors were quite disappointed of the deferral and so was i really very confused :confused:
  3. hey all is there any upper limit of donors weight that is accepted for donation
  4. hey guys, can we accept such a donor who has performed heavy exercise just before the donation please give reasons for each of ur answers

  6. hi all if a unit is cross matched for a baby patient who needs to be txed only50cc of blood acc to his weight my question is if we transfer 50 cc of blood in a sterile transfer bag and issue it , is the practice right? and secondly if the child needs more transfusion within three days do we have to re xmatch the same unit with a new sample in the case that 50cc of that unit has been txed ? ? plz clarify
  7. thanx everybody 4 ur answers but please specify what risks [if any ]can be faced if this unit is used without irradiating?

  9. hi all, as we work in a hospital we sometimes come in contact with patients suffering from polycythemia we generally know about the disease and its causes but usually the patients ask a very common questions that "can their blood be used ?" we try to explain about their disease but we dont know what exactly to say please answer why cannot we use their blood and other instructions to give a patient undergoing venesection thnx w8ng for ur answers:)
  10. Hi all, this is a rule of thumb that we have learnt till now that by transfusion of one unit of packed cells increases 1g/dl nomally here i have two questions i) if the donors hb is less than 12 g/dl e.g 11g/dl or less ( miss interpreted at the time of donation ) what will be rate of hb increase if one unit of packed cells of such a unit is transfused????:cool: ii) if the patient's hb increases more than 1 % what can be said ?

  14. hi all i would like to know that if a particular patient has givn a blood sample for cross matching for a unit of blood as he had to undergo a surgery but due to certain reasons his surgery is postponed FOR HOW MANY DAYS COULD THAT BLOOD SAMPLE BE SAVED AND BE VALID AND UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS ? PLEASE GIVE REASONS''
  15. hi all if a blood unit is screened for all parameters and has negative results of serology and malarial parasite and has hb%> 12g\dl but it has increased bile OR abnormal cellular counts like wbcs and platelets what will be your choice in this case should these units be discarded if yes WHY?
  16. but i would feel happy if you state reason why should it be discarded and what can it cause if transfused
  17. hi , heres a very simple question waiting for some very good answers from our respected blood bankers Can a malarial parasite positive platelets , ffps or cryo i mean produvts that does not contain rbcs?please specify your answers with reasons
  18. hi all , during blood donation of a particular donor our blood collection monitor went out of order due to which we had to take blood assuming that it was done and the volume was not measured when the volume was measured afterwards it was more than 500 ml .There came a question in my mind that it had altered blood to anticoagulant ratio .Kindly tell me that how does it affect a blood unit and what should we do in this case
  19. and please post if you find any info about this
  20. i would here like to share with you guys that at our facility we do have a software designed specially for blood bank we have a crossmatch window which shows requisitions made by doctors about what product of blood the need with other details we call it the MIS it really helps us to tell about the arranged blood by just typing patients identity numbers and helps to see and mange our stock
  21. we usually encounter a problem with the blood samples of dialysis patients after centrifugation serum gets like gel i wonder why it happens or does it have any link with Lara's problem:confused:
