Most Blood collected, stored in Adsol • Fraction is collected in CPD and CPDA • concern for mannitol in neonates Massive Transfusion in Neonates • Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation • Exchange Transfusion • Cardiovascular Surgery Adsol RBC are acceptable for routine, small transfusions in neonates
Platelets: Specialty Products • Single donor apheresis platelets • Crossmatched platelets • HLA-matched platelets Pathology consult and evaluation • Patients with suspected alloimmune platelet refractoriness
Irradiated Blood Products • Prevent transfusion-associated GVHD. • Engraftment donor lymphocytes • Mortality >80-90% • Cellular components only (RBC, platelets) Symptoms: • Fever • Skin eruptions • Diarrhea • Elevated LFT • Pancytopenia
RELATED OR HLA-MATCHED DONOR HLA: A1, A1, B8, B8 PATIENT HLA: A1, A2, B7, B8 Patient Compatible A1, B8 Donor Incompatible A2, B7
INDICATIONS • Intrauterine transfusion/exchange transfusion • Premature neonates • (<1200-1500gm and < 4 month age) • Congenital immunodeficiencies • Bone marrow transplant recipients • Hematologic malignancy • Solidtumor malignancy requiring high dose, multiagent chemotherapy • HLA-matched platelets • Directed donations from relatives ORGAN TRANSPLANTS DO NOT REQUIRE IRRADIATION
Adverse Effects of Irradiation • Increased rigidity, less deformability • Contributes storage lesion (RBC) • Increased K+ leak • Decrease ATP, pH • “accelerated aging” Give irradiated components only to those patients at risk
CMV-safe • Prevent TA-CMV in at-risk patients • Transmitted by lymphocytes • cellular components only (RBC, platelets) • Prevented by leukodepletion (CMV-safe) Indications: (CMV-safe) • Intrauterine transfusion • Premature infants/exchange transfusion • Bone marrow transplant • Solid organ transplant CMV-seronegative (U of M): CMV-negative BMT recipient of a CMV-negative donor
