• Minimizes volume
• Maximal & Optimal use of donated blood
![Page 4: Rational Use of Blood Components. Blood Components Stored Whole Blood Fresh Whole Blood Packed Red Cells Platelet Rich Plasma Platelet Concentrate – Random.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e845503460f94b86b44/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Techniques of Separation
• Centrifugation
- RBCs, platelets, plasma, cryoprecipitate 5000 rcf for 5 min
- PRP – 2000 rcf for 3 min• Apheresis – blood drawn from donor in
anticoagulant solution, separated into components, necessary component retained, others returned to donor circulation

• Red cell use should be based primarily on the patient's risk for complications owing to inadequate oxygenation of tissue
![Page 13: Rational Use of Blood Components. Blood Components Stored Whole Blood Fresh Whole Blood Packed Red Cells Platelet Rich Plasma Platelet Concentrate – Random.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e845503460f94b86b44/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Red Blood Cell Transfusion Requirements

Consideration for Transfusion
• Age• General condition of the patient• Co-existing Cardiac, Pulmonary, Vascular• Ability to tolerate acute blood loss or
chronic anaemia• Degree & chronicity of anaemia• Cause of anaemia - (alternative therapy
like iron, B12, folate, erythropoietin may eliminate need for transfusions)

Risk vs Benefit Studies
• TRICC Trial : NEJM 1999
A restrictive strategy (Hb 7-9g%) of blood transfusion is at least effective as & possibly superior to the liberal strategy (Hb 10-12g%) with the possible exception of patients with IHD

Risk vs Benefit Studies
• Anaemia & Blood Transfusion in Critically Ill Trial : JAMA 2002- Higher transfusions increased ICU stay- ICU & overall mortality higher in transfused group- Receipt of blood in the ICU increased the risk of dying by a factor of 1.4 (due to Immunosuppression & disturbances in microcirculation)

Efficacy and Safety of Epoetin Alfa in Critically Ill Patients
• The use of epoetin alfa does not reduce the incidence of red-cell transfusion among critically ill patients, but it may reduce mortality in patients with trauma. Treatment with epoetin alfa is associated with an increase in the incidence of thrombotic events.
