Q

when to use FFP -2

A

clinically singifcant bleeding without major haemorrhage if they have abnormal coag tests eg PT or APTT above 1.5

prophylactic for proceudres with abnormal coag with sig risk bleeding

idarucizumab - praxbind for dagibatran, andexanet alpha

IDARUCIZUMAB · Drug action. Idarucizumab is a humanised monoclonal antibody fragment that binds specifically to dabigatran and its metabolites,
Praxbind

Andexanet alfa is a recombinant form of human factor Xa protein which binds specifically to apixaban or rivaroxaban, thereby reversing their anticoagulant
Andexxa

Q

when to use cryo

A

consider if NO major haemorrhage and clinically significant bleeding and fibrinogen level below 1.5g/l

do not give if not bleeding and no procedure with risk of bleeding

Q
massive transfusion protocol
tranexamic
how to manage team
group o in females and males
until lab results available what to give 4
if lab results available
4 situations
A

trauma and less than 3h from injury give tranexamic acid 1g bolus over 10 min followed by IV infusion 1g over 8 hours

state patient unique identifier and location
nominate person to liase with blood bank
group o neg in females and o pos in males
group specific blood when known
send porter to lab

until lab results available
giver further FFP 1L 4 units per 6 units red cells
consider cryo 2 pools
consider platelets 1 adult theraputic dose ATD

if lab results available
falling Hb give red cells
PT ratio >1.5 FFP 15-20ml/kg
fibrinogen <1.5g/l - cryo 2 pools
platelets less than 75 x 10 to 9 give platelets 1 ATD

continue cycle of clinical and lab monitoring and admin to goal directed therapy until bleeding stops

Q

definition massive transfusion 3

A

transfusion 10 or more rbc which approximates to TBV of average patient within 24 hours

transfusion of more than 4 RBC with anticipated need continued blood

replacement of >50% of TBV by blood products within 3 hours

Q

transfusion complications - 3 categories

A

non immunological
immunological
metabolic

17
Q

non immunological -4 complications transfusion

A

fluid overload
infection
air embolus
coagulopathy

18
Q

immunological -4

A

TRALI
allergy
ABO incompatibility
graft vs host

19
Q

metabolic 5

A
hypothermia
hyperkalaemia / hypokalaemia
hypocalcaemia
hypomag
met alkalosis
20
Q

alternatives to blood tranfusion 2

A

EPO if anaemia and needs transfusion but refuses for religion

IV iron - irone def aneamia, cannot tolerate oral iron, diagnosed with functional irone def, surgery too soon for oral iron to be ffective

cell salvage

21
Q

diagram of cell salvage

A
dual lumen catheter suction from patient
via heparinised saline
to reservoir 
into cell salvage machin
saline for washing into machine
washed blood out of machine
back to patient for autologous transfusion
22
Q

why use cell salvage 6

A
consider if expected blood loss more than 1L
Jehovah's witness
reduce risks allogenic transfusion
reduce infective components
higher erythrocyte viability
decreased risk post op CVD complications
23
Q

types of haemostatic agents

A

gelatin based

gelatin combined with clotting factors - floseal

collagen based

cellulose based - surgicel, fibrillar

24
Q

how does floseal work

A

gelatin based with clotting factors
bovine origin
all actions gelatin prodcues
additional thrombin

25
how does surgicell work
cellulose based swells on contact with fluid to provide tamponade contact activation acid environment provides scaffold for platelets and clotting factors needs normal clotting cascade made from wood pulp
26
how does gelatin haemostatic agents work where from how long reabsorb whats needed to work
gelatin purified from porcine skin can absorb large amounts of blood thereby swelling to produce tamponade concentrates plasma proteins and clotting agents only be effective if patient clotting normal reabsorb within 4-6 weeks bovine origin
27
fibrin sealants tisseel
haemostatic, sealant, adhesive activate clotting cascade by two components mixed together component 1 contains thrombin and calcium component 2 contains fibrinogen fibronectin and factor XIII thrombin converts factor XIII to activated form activated factor XIII converts fibrin monomers into fibrin polymer need dry stationary surface
28
combination collagen and fibrin sealant
tachosil | same mechanism as fibrin sealant
29
how does collagen agetns work
actifoam initiates clotting cascade via contact activation platelets aggregrate in the collegn matrix platelets initiate clotting cascade via contact activation
30
beryplex constituents
Beriplex is made from human plasma (this is the liquid part of the blood) and it contains the human coagulation factors II, VII, IX and X. Concentrates including these coagulation factors are called prothrombin complex products.
