  6. What is the Hct % in 1 unit of PRBC's?
    70-80%
  7. What percentage of blood volume lost would indicatate  definite rapid PRBC transfusion?
    >40%
  8. what Hgb level indicates PRBC transfusion?
    less than 7 g/dL
  9. How much will one unit of PRBC's increase hemoglobin and Hct?
    • Hgb- 1g/dL
    • Hct- 3%
  10. Do you warm PRBC's before administration?
    YES!
  11. What fluid should not be used when admin PRBC's?
    LR- Calcium can cause clotting
  12. What size filter should be used when admin PRBC's?
    150 microns

    • washed
    • leukocyte reduced
    • irradiated
  14. What is "WASHED PRBCS"? what is removed from this fluid?
    • centrifuged in saline
    • removes K+ excess
  15. Who should receive "WASHED PRBCS"?
    pt w/ hx of transfusion rxn
  16. how long can "WASHED PRBCS" be stored?
    24 hours
  17. what is the most effective method of creating "Leukoctye-reduced" PRBC's?
    filtered
  18. "Leukoctye-reduced" PRBC's are given to avoid __________ febrile reactions.
    nonhemolytic
  19. "Leukoctye-reduced" type PRBC's are given to prevent sensitization of patients with ______ _______.
    aplastic anemia
  20. "Leukoctye-reduced" PRBC's are given to  minimize transmission of what two viruses?
    HIV and CMV

    65-70%
  22. should Cell saver blood be warmed?
    No- it doesnt need to be
  23. Cell saver blood should be filtered through a ___ micron filter
    40
  24. Should Cell saver be pressurized>?
    NO!
  25. what should never be clamped when using a cell-saver?
    the delivery line
  26. what is normal platelet level?
    100-400k
  27. platelet transfusion is indicated when plt count is < __________.
    50,000 cells/mm^3
  28. platelets are routinely given after what procedure and why?
    • cardiopulmonary bypass

  29. what 2 ways are platelets prepared?
    multiple or single donor
  30. initial does of platelet transfusion?
    10cc/kg
  31. how much will a "6 pack" whole blood platelet unit raise a platelet count?
    30-50 x 10^9 /L
  32. Should platelets be warmed or cooled?
    NO to both
  33. what size filter should be used for platelet transfusion?
    150 micron
  34. why should 20-40 micron filter not be used for platelet transfusion?
    it will remove most of the platelets
