Introduced citrate-phosphate-dextrose
Gibson
The amount of whole blood in a unit has been
450 mL +/- 10% of blood
For a 110 lb donor, a maximum of (?) can be collected
525 mL
Total blood volume for most adults:
10 to 12 pints
Donors can replenish the fluid lost from the donation of
1 pint in 24 hours.
The donor’s red cells are replaced within (?) after donation.
1 to 2 months
A volunteer donor can donate blood every
8 weeks.
Units of the whole blood can be separated into three components:
Packed red blood cells, platelets, and plasma
The plasma can be converted by cryoprecipitation to a clotting factor concentrate that is rich in
antihemophilic factor.
A unit of whole blood-prepared RBCs may be stored for (?), depending on the anticoagulant-preservative solution.
21 to 42 days
The donation process, especially (?), has been carefully modified over time to allow for the rejection of donors who may transmit transfusion-associated disease to recipients.
steps 1 and 2
The (?) is safer than it has ever been because of the donation process and extensive laboratory screening (testing) of blood.
nation’s blood supply
The use of (?), licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since 2002, is one reason for the increased safety of the blood supply.
nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT)
THE DONATION PROCESS 3 STEPS:
Step 1: Educational Materials
Step 2: The Donor Health History Questionnaire
Step 3: The Abbreviated Physical Examination
