ADVANTAGES OF BLOOD COMPONENT THERAPYMaximization of the yield of products from a single blood donation.
Ability to use the optimal products for specific diseases (thus minimizing the amount of unnecessary foreign material the recipient is exposed to).
The recipient can be treated with only those blood components that are lacking, reducing the occurrence of adverse transfusion reactions
More than one patient can be treated with blood components derived from one donation
Therapeutic support for patients with special transfusion requirements can be provided, for ex., plasma that often is not directly needed for transfusion can be used manufacturing of Factor VIII concentrate for Haemophilia A patients.
Improved quality and functional capacity of each components when varied storage conditions and shelf lives were applied
DISADVANTAGESPrimary disadvantage is encountered in treating patients with massive blood loss requiring massive transfusionsExposure to multiple donors increases the risk to infectious complications of transfusions

COMPONENT SEPARATION BY APHERESIS
APHERESISBlood is withdrawn from donor / patient, separated into components, one or more of the components is retained, and remaining constituents are recombined and returned to the individual
Haemonetics mcs plus LN 9000
Indications of Apheresis1. To collect the components for transfusion purpose-Donor Apheresis 2. Removing undesirable blood component -Therapeutic Apheresis.DonorTherapeuticTypes Cytapheresis Plasma -Plasmapheresis
Specific criteria for donor selection for plateletpheresis
Interval between two donations-at least 48 hrs; Donors should not undergo procedure > Twice a week / >24 times in a year (AABB STD)
2. If donor donates whole blood / red cells not returned / extra plasma being collected -Deferred for at least 8 wks.
3.If needed, platelets can be collected from donors irrespective of above criteria (HLA matched donors)
4. Donors who have taken aspirin containing medications within 36 hrs- deferred
Criteria for selection for LeukapheresisDonor Selection- ABO , Rh compatible. Free from infectious diseases(CMV inf.) HLA compatibility for alloimmunised patients Free from disorders :Diabetes, arthritis, gout, vasculitis, thrombocytopenia
Criteria for selection for PlasmapheresisPrerequisite- Written informed consent, Total count within normal limitIn cases of frequent donors--Sr. protein level of min.6.0 gm/dl is obligatory.Every 4 months, all lab tests reviewed, sr. protein electrophoresis , Ig(IgM/IgG) levels done.Safe to accept 600 ml of plasma every 2 wks.
Preparation of blood components
Different specific gravity of cellular components. red cell specific gravity 1.08 to 1.09. platelet specific gravity 1.03- 1.04. plasma specific gravity 1.02 1.03 due to different specific gravity of cellular components , they can be separated by centrifuging at different centrifugal force in g for different time.
Preparation of Blood ComponentsVarious components- separated by- CENTRIFUGATION- depends on:Relative centrifugal force (RCF)Duration of centrifugationRCF (g) = 0.0000118 x r x N2r- Radius of centrifuge rotorN- no. of rotations per min
CentrifugationPrinciple Sediment of blood cells depend on their size as well as the difference of their density from that of the surrounding fluid, viscosity of medium, flexibility of the cells which are temperature dependent
Component preparation and separation are based on the principle that different component of whole blood have different specific gravitiesRBC -1.08-1.09Platelets-1.03-1.04Plasma 1.02 1.03

RED CELL CONCENTRATE Prepared by removing 80% plasma from a unit of whole blood.
Red cells volume 250-300ml, approx 65-80% hematocrit and have same oxygen carrying capacity as whole blood and stored at 1-6 deg Celsius.
ADVANTAGES OF USING RBCs OVER WHOLE BLOOD:
-Equal oxygen carrying capacity in half the volume-significant reduction in level of isoagglutinins (anti-A , anti-B) facilitating safe transfusion of Group O cells to non-group O recipients.-significant reduction in acid level, citrate toxicity & potassium load.
Preparation Sedimentation Centrifugation

Blood is collected in double bag/ triple bag CPDA solution
Centrifuge at 3600rpm for 5 min(4-6degC

solutionTransfer plasma into satellite bag using plasma expressor

Storage : 1-6 deg C
Shelf life: CPD=21 days CPDA-1=35 days CPD-AS=42 days
Quality controlHaematocrit: < or equal to 80%
Indications :restore O2 carrying capacity in symptomatic anemia(acute /chronic)Dosage effect:1 unit RBC: Hct 3% Hb 1 g
LEUKOCYTE REDUCED RBCsProducts in which WBC count in unit < 5* 10^6.Major indication for LRRC : prevention of non hemolytic febrile transfusion reaction particularly in multi-transfused patients or multiparous females.Depletion of leukocytes < 5* 10^8 has shown to prevent such reactions.Another indication is prevent alloimmunization to HLA antigens , reduce CMV transmission. Useful in bone marrow transplant , chemotherapy patients
Preparation:
CENTRIFUGATION-
it reduces WBC level only 70-80% .Now this procedure is replaced by more effective techniques
FILTRATION-microaggregate filters are polyester/plastic screen filters with pore size 20-40 micro-meter .usually give90-99% leukocyte reduction & recover most of RBC volume.Unit is centrifuged before filtration.Inverted spinUpright spin
Procedure is easy quick .
RBC unit prepared by this method suitable for patients with TRALI transfusion reaction.Filtration can be performed in laboratory or bed-side.
Blood bags with in-line filters that allow prestorage leukoreduction are now more commonly used.
Drawbacks of FILTER:expensiveReduce flow rate of blood if using bedside filtering procedure & if filtering is done in blood bank without expensive sterile connecting device.Open system24 hr expiration date on final product
WASHED RBCsRBCs are washed using isotonic saline by automated techniques.Saline washing step helps to remove plasma proteins.Products particularly good for patients with PNH or IgA deficiency pts with circulating anti-IgA.
Drawback- 24 hour expiration date because of open system.
RBC DEGLYCEROLIZEDA component prepared by thawing and washing red cells that have been stored in a cryoprotective agent for up to 10 years at temperatures-650C.
This freezing process is especially useful for rare blood storage.
Removal of glycerol is done by replacing glycerol with decreasing conc. of saline (12% 1.6%) with final wash in normal saline.
INDICATIONS-Storage of rare blood for a longer period -Storage of autologous blood CONTRAINDICATIONS-Not cost effective, alternatives leucocytes reduced RBC may be just as effective.
DISEASE TRANSMISSION- May transmit both hepatitis B & C-Decreases CMV seroconversion in susceptible individuals
