  1. BLOOD AND ITS COMPONENTS

  2. BLOOD IS VITAL TO LIFE ,OR WE CAN SAY BLOOD IS LIFE. In INDIA blood transfusion was first started in School Of Tropical medicine. Calcutta,1939, with out any scope for group matching. As this procedure was unscientific a committee was formed for establishment of blood bank in Calcutta. Ultimately a small blood bank was started in the dept of Serology, School Of Tropical Medicine named as RED CROSS BLOOD BANK. Later it was shifted to Maniktala as Central Blood bank. Pundit JawharLal Nehru donated blood in Calcutta in 1946.

  3. In spite of dynamic progress in the field medical science, the life saving role of blood is yet with out parallel, even in the 21st century. Blood is still the most essential factor in saving a life. In INDIA total requirement of blood is approximately 80,00,000.units per year, where as its collection from voluntary donors does not exceed a total of 50,00,000units even after almost 60 years of independence.

  4. Contd. • In a statistical study it is seen that total no of blood donation in West Bengal- 713535 (Vol. 85.71%) Bihar – 47863 (Vol. 22.74%) Jharkhand --- 73238 (Vol. 33.13%) Uttar Pradesh- 394699 (Vol. 17.3%) Maharashtra- 377110 (Vol. 86.36%)

  5. Preservation and storage of Blood Since 1978 citrate-phosphate-dextrose with adenine (CPDA-1) is used as blood preservative for 35 days at 2-40C.

  6. Action of ingredients of anticoagulant solution.

  7. Action of ingredients of anticoagulant solution. - Blood pH on day of collection is 7.5 and on 35th day become 6.84. - A fall in pH in the stored blood results in a decrease in red cell 2, 3-DPG level, which results in increase in hemoglobin-oxygen affinity. CPDA-1 maintains adequate levels of 2,3-DPG for 10 -14 days. - During storage Na+ and K+ leak through the red cell membrane rapidly. K+ loss is greater than Na+ gain during storage.

  10. Transfusion Reactions

  11. Inspection of blood Blood should be inspected before transfusion for possible bacterial contamination, haemolysis, visible clots, brown or red plasma. Plasma with a green hue should not to be rejected because this is caused byexposure of bilirubin pigment to the light. Yersinia enterocolitica can grow at 40C and the blood is haemolysed.

  12. Blood component Importance of componentseparation Separation of blood into component allows optimal survival of each constituents Component separation allows transfusion of only specific desired component to the patient Transfusion of only the specific constituent of the blood avoids the use of unnecessary component By using blood components several patient can be treated with the blood from one donor

  13. Blood Components (cellular & plasma) & Plasma Derivatives Cellular components • Red cell concentrate • Leucocytes-reduced red cells • Platelet concentrates • Leucocytes-reduced platelet concentrates • Platelet Apheresis • Granulocytes, Apheresis

  14. Contd. Plasma Components • Fresh frozen plasma • Single donor plasma • Cryoprecipitate • Cryo-poor plasma Plasma derivatives • Albumin 5% & 25% • Plasma protein fractions • Factor viii concentrate • Immunoglobulin • Fibrinogen • Other coagulation factors

  15. Preparation of blood component is possible due to • Multiple Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) pack system • Refrigerated centrifuge • Different specific gravity of cellular components • Red cells spg. 1.08-1.09 • Platelet spg. 1.03-1.04 • Plasma spg. 1.02-1.03 Due to different specific gravity of cellular components, they can be separated by centrifuging at diff g for diff time.

  16. Centrifugation for blood component preparation The components are prepared by centrifuging at diff relative centrifugal force at diff time. Relative Centrifugal Force in g =118 x10-7 x r x N2

  17. Precautions to be observed in preparing components In collection of blood • proper selection of donor • Clean & aseptic venepuncture site to minimize bacterial contamination • Clean venepuncture with minimum tissue trauma and free flow of blood • The flow of blood should be uninterrupted and continuous. If any unit takes more than 8 minutes to draw, it is not suitable for preparation of blood components. • A correct amount of blood proportionate to anti coagulant should be collected in primary bag that has satellite bags attached with integral tubing.

  18. Contd. • Monitor the collection of blood with automatic mixer which is used for collecting the desired amount of blood and mixing the blood with anticoagulant • If platelets are to be harvested the blood bag should be kept at room temperature 20-240C until platelets are separated. Platelets should be separated within 6 hours from the time of collection of blood. • Triple packs system with two attached bags makes it possible to make red cells, platelet concentrate and fresh frozen plasma. While quad packs system with three attached bags are used for preparing red cells, platelets concentrate , cryoprecipitate (factor viii) and cryo-poor plasma. Double bags are used making red cells and Platelet rich plasma only.

  20. Whole Blood Whole blood contains 450+63 ml or 350+49 ml of blood plus anticoagulant solution. The anticoagulant used is CPDA-1. Whole blood has a hematocrit of 30-40 percent. Minimum 70% of transfused red cells should survive in the recipient’s circulation 24 hrs after transfusion. Stored blood has no functional platelets and no labile coagulation factors V and VIII.

  21. Preparation of Red Blood Cell Concentrates Red blood cells are prepared by removing most of the plasma from a unit of fresh blood. • Red blood cells preparations are: • Sedimented red cells: They have a PCV of 60-70%, 30 % of plasma & all original leucocytes and platelets. Kept at 2-60C. • Centrifuged red cells: They have a PCV of 70-80 percent, 15 % of plasma and all original leucocytes and platelets. Kept at 2-60C. • Red cells with additive (Adsol or SAG-M): They have PCV of 50-60 Percent, minimum plasma and all leucocytes and platelets. Usually kept at 2-40C.

  22. Leukocytes-Reduced Blood Components Leukocytes in blood components can cause: • Non hemolytic febrile transfusion reactions (NHFTR) • Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alloimmunisation. • Transfusion of Leukotropic viruses eg. CMV, EBV, HTLV1. • Transfusion related GVHD • Transfusion related acute lung injury (TRALI) • Transfusion related immunosuppression.

  23. Contd. Cytokines are generated by leukocytes, even at 2-60Cbut to a much greater extent at 20-240C.Cytokine level rise in direct proportion to the number of leukocyte. Hence leuko-reduction before storage in blood bank is much better than post storage bed side leuko-reduction . Reducing the leukocyte content <5x106 in one unit of RBCs prevents non hemolytic febrile transfusion reactions (NHFTR) and HLA alloimmunisation or transmission of CMV.

  24. Methods of Preparation of Leukocytes-Reduced Red Cells • Centrifugation and removing of Buffy coat • Filtration • Washing of red cells with saline • Freezing and thawing of red cells leuko-reduction can be done at three diff points • Prestorage leuko-reduction • Post storage leuko-reduction • Bedside filtration

  25. Impact of pre-storage leuko-reduction Results from pre-storage Potential patient benefit leuko-reduction • Cytokine production is Decrease in NHFTRs reduced or eliminated • White cells are removed Decrease alloimmunization before fragmentation Decrease virus transmission • Tumor metastasis are Prevent immunomodulation reduced .

  26. Preparation of Platelet Rich Plasma & Platelet Rich Concentrate Are prepared from • 450 ml of fresh blood by centrifugation or Aphaeresis. • A unit of platelet concentrate prepared from 450 ml of fresh blood contains: • Plasma vol. 40-70ml. • Platelet yield 5.5x1010 • WBC ≥108 • RBC traces to 0.5ml. • pH 6.0 or more

  27. Calculation of Platelet Yield • Number of platelet in blood= platelet per mm3 x1000 x vol. of blood (ml) • Number of platelet in PRP = platelet per mm3 x 1000 x vol. of PRP (ml.) • Number of platelet in P.C. = platelet per mm3 x 1000 x vol. of P.C. (ml.) Calculation: • % of platelet yield in PRP= Number of platelet in PRP x100/ Number of platelet in blood • % of platelet yield in P.C.= Number of platelet in P.C. x100/ Number of platelet in PRP

  28. Precaution and storage pH should never fall below 6. A decline in pH causes • Changes in shape of platelets from disc to sphere • Pseudopod formation • Release of platelets granules The above changes are responsible for low recovery and poor survival of platelets in vivo. Agitation during storage helps the exchange of gases, maintenances of pH, & reduce formation of platelet aggregates.

  29. Granulocyte Concentrates Granulocyte concentrates prepared by • Single donor unit • Leukapheresis by blood cell separators As the specific gravity of red cells and granulocytes is very similar, the separation of granulocytes by centrifugation is not satisfactory. Leukapheresis is a better method. Granulocytes can be stored at 20-240C but they should be used within 8 hrs. & not later than 24 hrs from blood collection.

  30. Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) It contains all coagulation factors & great care must be taken during collection of blood , freezing and thawing to preserve their activity. Collection of blood : • Blood should be collected le by a clean, single venepuncture. • Flow of blood should be rapid and constant. • Total time taken to collect 450 ml of blood should not be more than 8 minutes. The most labile coagulation factors are preserved for one yr. if FFP is kept at -300C or below. If FFP is not used within one yr. it is redesignated as Single Donor Plasma which can be kept further for 4 yrs at -300C or below. The FFP should be administered as soon as possible after thawing, and in any event within 12 hrs. if kept at 2-60C.

  31. Cryoprecipitate Cryoprecipitate are precipitated proteins of plasma rich in Factor VIII and fibrinogen, obtained from a single unit of fresh plasma ( approximately 200 ml.) by rapid freezing within 6 hrs of collection. Factors improve the yield of Factor VIII in Cryoprecipitate • Clean single venepuncture at first attempt • Rapid flow of blood, donation of blood (450ml) obtained in less than 8-10 mins should be used • Adequate mixing of blood and anticoagulant • Rapid freezing of plasma as soon as possible after collection in any case within 6-8 hrs after collection as done for preparing FFP. • Rapid thaw at 40C in circulating water bath. Storage and shelf life of Cryoprecipitate: One yr at -300C or below. After reconstitution Cryoprecipitate should be kept at 2-60C and administered within 4 hrs.

  32. Single Donor Plasma Single donor plasma can be prepared by separating it from red cells any time up to 5 days after the expiration of the whole blood unit. When stored at -200C or lower, single donor plasma may be kept up to 5 yrs. A prolonged pre separation storage period increases its contents of potassium & ammonia. It has no labile coagulation activity.

  33. Cryoprecipitate Poor Plasma • It is a by-product of cryoprecipitate preparation. • It lacks labile clotting factors V and VIII and fibrinogen. • It contains adequate levels of stable clotting factors II, VII, IX & X. • It is frozen and stored at -200C or lower temperature for 5 yrs.

  34. Indications, Contraindications & Complications of Diff Blood Components
