Der gegenwärtige Stand der Blutfiltration - Grundlagen und klinische Bedeutung von Leukozytendepletions- und Mikroaggregatfiltern bei der Bluttransfu…

1993

In this review the role of the latest generation of leukodepletion blood filters and the adverse reaction of leukocytes i.e. alloimmunisation, immunosuppression, nonhaemolytic febrile transfusion reaction, platelet refractoriness, transmission of infectious agents are described and discussed. Leukocyte-poor blood component is indicated for patients with a history of nonhaemolytic febrile transfusion reaction, in avoiding alloimmunisation in patients waiting for transplantation or platelet refractoriness and in preventing CMV-infection. In the review the role of microaggregate filters in transfusion complications, namely, nonhaemolytic febrile transfusion reaction, thrombocytopenia, adult re…

The impact of del Nido cardioplegia solution on blood morphology parameters

2021

Background: Crystalloid cardioplegic solutions are believed to reduce hemoglobin significantly and increase the transfusion rate. However, recent reports indicate that the del Nido cardioplegia may preserve blood morphology parameters. Methods: In “The del Nido versus cold blood cardioplegia in aortic valve Replacement” trial patients undergoing aortic valve replacement were randomized into the del Nido (DN) or cold blood cardioplegia (CB) group. For the subanalysis, patients who underwent blood transfusions were excluded from the study. Red blood cell (RBC) count, hemoglobin, white blood cell (WBC) count and platelet (PLT) count were measured before the surgery, 24-, 48-, and 96 hours post…

Accuracy of blood transfusion in postpartum hemorrhage to assess maternal morbidity.

2012

International audience; OBJECTIVE: To measure the accuracy of blood transfusion (timing and number of blood units) in postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in a perinatal network. STUDY DESIGN: (1) The ANONYMAT software system was used for anonymization and linkage of two large stand-alone databases, the Burgundy Perinatal Network (BPN) and the National Blood Centre (EFS) databases, which contain, respectively, clinical data from hospital discharges and information concerning any blood transfusion in France (considered as the gold standard database for identifying any transfusion). (2) Identification of prescriptions of at least one red blood cell (RBC) unit at the day of delivery (≥22 weeks) and up …

Pediatric non-red cell blood product transfusion practices: what's the evidence to guide transfusion of the ‘yellow’ blood products?

2020

Purpose of review Research studies pertaining to the management of pediatric non-red cell blood product transfusion is limited. Clinical practices vary within disciplines and regions. Anesthesiologists need evidence-based guidelines to make appropriate and safe decisions regarding transfusion of the 'yellow' blood products for pediatric patients. Recent findings This review outlines clinical indications for transfusion of fresh frozen plasma, cryoprecipitate, platelets, and fibrinogen concentrate in pediatrics. Recent studies of non-red blood cell transfusions in critical, but stable situations are highlighted. Recommendations to guide transfusion of the 'yellow' blood products in operative…
