FACTS ABOUT BLOOD...DID YOU KNOW THAT?

BLOOD, COMPONENTS, AND INDICATIONS

BLOOD	COMPOSITION		INDICATIONS
1.  Whole blood	Red blood Cell leukocytes, platelets clotting factors and plasma, hematocrit about 40%.		Blood volume replacement and oxygen, and maintain hemoglobin at 120-140g/L.
2.  Packed red blood cells	Red blood cells with plasma (hematocrit 75%) some platelets white blood cells.Red blood 0.30 plasma.Some leucocytes and platelet		Increases red blood cell mass. To increase the haematocrit to a minimum level of 30%. To correct red blood cell deficiency and improve oxygen capacity of blood.
3.  Platelets random	Platelets (5.5x10 platelets unit) plasma and some red blood cells, white blood cells lymph o`cites		Bleeding due to severe decrease in platelets. To maintain normal blood coagulability.
4.platelets - single donor	Platelets (3x10/unit) 1 unit is equivalent to 6-8 units of random platelets.		Used for repeated alloimmuization risk by limiting exposure to multiple donors.
5. plasma	Plasma: all coagulation factors complement.		-Bleeding in patients with coagulation. -Patient with coagulation factors deficiency. -plasmapheresis.
6. granulocytes	Neutrophils(greater than 1x10/unit) lymphocytes, some red blood cells and platelets		Severe neutropenia
7. lymphocytes(white blood cells) cryo precipitate		Fibrinogen greater than or equal to 150mg/bag/von wille) rand factor ,fibrinorectin	Haemophilia A(21 hypoprofibrinogenemia)
8.AHF Factor IX concentration Factor IX complex		Factor VIII Factor II,VII,IX,X.	Hereditary factor VII, IX, X,deficiency.
9.albumin		Albumin5%,25%	Hypoproteinemia, burns, increase blood volume.
10.intravenous		1g antibiotics	Hypogrammaglobulinemia.
11. anti thrombin III concentrate (ATIII) 12.Albumin 5% 25%		ATIII(Trace  amounts of other proteins) Albumin 50%/L sodium 130- 160mmoI/L osmolality 300mos Albumin 240g/L Globulin 10g/L Sodium 130 – 160mmol/L Osmolality 15OOmosmol/L PH 6.4- 7.4.	ATIII deficiency with with or at risk for thrombosis. To increase the plasma colloid To rapidly expand the plasma volume.
