Hemolytic Transfusion Rxn (↑hb + ↓haptoglobin + ↑LDH/bili = RBC damage)

Tw hydration (flush kidneys) + supportive care (most likely clerical error)

36
Q

in Hemolytic Transfusion Rxn, ↑ free Hb binds with _____ which forms methemoglobin –> cytokine release (IL8 IL6) –> fever chills, SIRS. Decrease in this compound also leads to what phenomenon?

run transfusions slower in the future

40
Q
