Blood Component Preparation and Therapeutic Cytapheresis Flashcards
(134 cards)
used to treat patients who have abnormally elevated platelet counts (plt ct > 1,000,000/uL) such as polycythemia vera
equivalent to 6-10 random plt conc
plateletpheresis
used to treat patients with leukemia (wbc > 100,000/uL) such as Hairy cell leukemia, AML, Cutaneous T cell lymphoma
uses either HES or corticosteroids
leukapheresis
means of producing immunosuppression in conditions like RA, SLE, kidney transplant rejection, and autoimmune and alloimmune dses
lymphocytapheresis
sedimenting agent used for granulocyte collection w/c causes red cells to form rouleaux thus allowing WBCs to be harvested more efficiently
HES (hydroxyethyl starch)
administered to the donors 12-24hrs before pheresis to increase the number of circulating granulocytes by pulling them from the marginal pool
Corticosteroids
for young pxs w/ certain hematologic disorders especially thalassemia syndromes
transfusion of young rbcs “neocytes”
neocytapheresis
used to treat various complications of sickle disease such as priapism, impending stroke. Also in pxs w/ severe parasitic infections from malaria or babesia
erythrocytapheresis
an exchange transfusion
Predetermined quantity of red cells is removed from px and replaced w/ homologous blood
erythrocytapheresis
o To remove the offending agent in the plasma causing clinical symptoms in cases of paraproteinemia (e.g. multiple myeloma, waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, etc.)
o To collect rare red and white cell abs
o Beneficial particularly in disease that involve malfunction of the immune system (SLE, RA)
Therapeutic Plasmapheresis
(Plasma Exchange)
Replacement fluids used are NSS, NSA, PPF, FFP
