What would be an example of an underlying cause of an immediate hemolytic transfusion reaction (IHTR)?

A patient with anti-K (or any other warm reacting, IgG antibody) in serum is transfused with K-positive red cells

Why is fresh frozen plasma (FFP) indicated for women with HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelets)?

Factor I (Fibrinogen)

Liquid plasma is not indicated for what factor deficiency?

Factor V

Factor IX concentrates contain which factors (otherwise known as "prothrombin complex")?

Factors II, VII, IX, X

When would transfusing non-specific blood be warranted?

If a type A individual who has been massively transfused with type O blood shows anti-A in their serum

Which of the following represent the pathophysiology of post-transfusion purpura (PTP)?

Platelet alloantibody attaches to platelet surface permitting extravascular destruction by RES

Which of the following urinalysis results represents hemolysis?

Reagent strip is positive for blood in absence of intact RBCs (microscopic)

A patient with paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria (PCH) would require ____ in the event of a blood transfusion.

a blood warmer

What may be found in the sera of a person who is exhibiting signs of a noncardiogenic pulmonary edema reaction?

antileukocyte antibody

What is a possible mechanism for noncardiogenic pulmonary edema reactions?

antileukocyte antibody reacts in donor or patient plasma initiating complement mediated pulmonary capillary endothelial injury

Which of the following best describes a transfusion reaction?

any unfavorable transfusion-related event occuring in a patient during or after transfusion of blood components

Which of the following should be collected 5 to 7 hours after transfusion for unconjugated bilirubin determination?

clotted blood specimen

List three pathologic causes of a decreased red blood cell mass

improper patient identification

What is the cause of death in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)? How can it be prevented?

infection Pathogen Reduction treatment that involves, for example, by adding riboflavin and then exposure to UV light has been shown to be effective in inactivating pathogens like viruses, bacteria, parasites and white blood cells in blood products

previous transfusion pregnancies transfusion reactions

What is the best-tolerated form of transplantation in humans?

red blood cells

Which mechanism may play a role in fever development in a febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reaction (FNHTR)?

release of pyrogens from transfused white blood cells

transplantation of immunocompetent T lymphocytes HLA incompatibility between graft and recipient an immunocompromised recipient

Platelets prepared from what are referred to as random donor platelets?

whole blood units
