Patients should ideally receive their own blood or type-specific blood products to minimize the chance of a transfusion reaction.
22.
If this is done manually and the donor receives the blood from a different donor, a transfusion reaction can take place.
23.
If a D-negative patient has developed anti-D antibodies, a subsequent exposure to D-positive blood would lead to a potentially dangerous transfusion reaction.
24.
This type of blood has less risk of a serious transfusion reaction because it is both ABO compatible and Rhesus ( Rh )-compatible.
25.
To avoid transfusion reactions, the donor and recipient blood are tested, typically ordered as a " type and screen " for the recipient.
26.
FSL have been used to create human red cell kodecytes that have been used to detect and identify blood group allo-antibodies as transfusion reactions.
27.
Once the patient has developed a clinically significant antibody it is vital that the patient receive antigen-negative red blood cells to prevent future transfusion reactions.
28.
The danger with this method was that if the wrong red blood cells were returned to the donor, a serious and potentially fatal transfusion reaction could occur.
29.
His Pall filter was designed to make blood transfusions significantly safer by filtering out white blood cells, thereby reducing the incidence of transfusion reactions and viral infections.
30.
Both parents were blood group O and the husband's blood was used to give the mother a blood transfusion, but the mother suffered a severe transfusion reaction.
