ADDITIVE SOLUTIONS - SOL. ADDED TO RBC AFTER REMOVAL OF PLASMA W/ OR W/OUT PLATELET (SALINE, ADENINE , MANNITOL, GLUCOSE). 45 DAYS OF STORAGE.
REJUVINATING SOLUTIONS USED TO RESTORE ATP AND 2,3DPG LEVELS. (PHOSPHATE,INOSINE,GLUCOSE, PYUVATE AND ADENINE. RBCS STORED IN LIQUID STATE AFTER REJUVINATE 3 DAYS PRESERVATION.
Atleast 70% of the red blood cells must remain viable at the end after storage period.
75% of blood transfused should remain viable after 24 hrs of transfusion.
Shipment of blood is maintained at temperature of 1-10 degree celcius. Ice or other cooling devices should not physically be in contact with the blood unit to prevent hemolysis.
Storage Lesions biochemical changes in stored blood that can be lead to decreased RBC viability.
Packed RBCs - can be prepared through centrifugation
Heavy spin ( 5000 x g for 5 minutes) when temperature is set at 4 degree celcius and if the whole blood used is not intended for platelet concentrate preparation
Light spin (3200 x g for 2-3 minutes; or 2000x g for 3 minutes) when temperature is at 22-degree celcius and if the whole blood is to be used for platelet concentrate preparation.
Platelet Concentrate -can be prepared FROM WB centrifugation.
platelet derived from WB as RDP(random donor platelet)
whole blood to be used for preparation of RDP must be processed within 6-8 hours after collection( 6 hours if ACD; 8 hours for CPD,CP2D,CPDA1)
whole blood to be used for RDP preparation must be maintained at 20-24C.
unit should contain t least 5.5x10 platelets
unit must be contain sufficient plasma to maintain a pH greater than or equal to 6.2
platelets are stored at 20-24C for 5 days in constant agitation.
allow the platelet concentrate to remain undisturbed for 1-2 hours at 20-24 C. This is to enhance platelet disaggregation. Resuspend by gentle manipulation.
platelet unit obtained from plateletpheresis is known as SDP(Single donor platelet)
HLA(human leukocyte antigen) alloimmunization is a result of a multiple platelet transfusion resulted to ineffective platelet transfusion this is due to the develop of platelet antibodies and HLA antigen.Thus it is best to transfuse platelet units collected via plateletpheresis.
Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP)- plasma has been prepared w/in 6 hours after collection (if ACD is used), 8 hours after collection if (CP2D,CPD, CPDA1 is used).
Plasma frozen within 24 hrs (PF24)- if platelet has been prepared within 8-24 hours after collection.
initially stored horizontal but if frozen, shifted to vertical position.
stored at -18C for 1 year or at -65 for 7 years
must be thawed before transfusion @ 30-37C with agitation in water bath.
once the product is completely thawed, store the product for about 1-6C and should be transfused within 24 hrs.
. Cryoprecipitate prepared from FFP allow the FFP to thaw in a refrigerator @ 1-6 C for about 14-16 hrs.
a precipitate is recovered after a hard spin from plasma called cryoprecipitate.
supernatant fluid can be frozen at -18 C and labeled as plasma cryoprecipitate reduced also known as cryosupernate.
whole blood modified can be modified by having 50 ml of plasma removed in preparation of platelets, or 10-15 mL of plasma removed in the preparation of cryoprecipitate.
irradiated components is performed in order to inactivate the lymphocytes, which can cause graft- vs host disease (gvHD) it is done to a immunocompremised/ immunosuppressed and donations to immunocompetent first degree of relatives commonly used irradiating blood components is the comercially availbale CESIUM source
Leuko-poor or Leuko-reduced components RBC units and platelet units can undergo leuko-reduction in order to reduce the number of leukocytes.
pre-storageleuko-reduction - WBCs are removed prior to storage. It can help to prevent febrile transfusion reactions caused by both WBC and BRMs(biologic response modifiers).
post-storage leuko-reduction- since it undergone storage, there is an accumulation already of BRMs. Thus only the WBCs being removed not the BRMs.
