Wilson, M.D. COMMUNITY Becky Croner REPRESENTATIVES: Ellen DiSalvo Christa Engel Phyllis Ericson Kelly Gillaspie Pat Gilles Vic Grdina Jessica Henrichs Kelly Jensen Laurel McReynolds Christina Nickel Angela Novotny Kelley Thiemann Janet Wachter Jodi Wikoff Guidelines For Transfusion Community Transfusion Committee INTRODUCTION The Community Transfusion Committee is a multidisciplinary group that meets to monitor blood utilization practices, establish guidelines for transfusion and discuss relevant transfusion related topics. It is comprised of physicians from local hospitals, invited guests, and community representatives from the hospitals’ transfusion services, nursing services, perfusion services, health information management, and the Nebraska Community Blood Bank. These Guidelines for Transfusion are reviewed and revised biannually by the Community Trans- fusion Committee to ensure that the industry’s most current practices are promoted. The Guidelines are the standard by which utilization practices are evaluated. They are also de- signed to provide helpful information to assist physicians to provide appropriate blood compo- nent therapy to patients. Appendices have been added for informational purposes and are not to be used as guidance for clinical decision making. ADULT RED CELLS A. Indications 1. One of the following a.

    27. CLINICAL INDICATIONS FOR CRYOPRECIPITATE AND FIBRINOGEN CONCENTRATE Cryoprecipitate is indicated in the treatment of fibrinogen deficiency or dysfibrinogenaemia.1 Fibrinogen concentrate is licenced for the treatment of acute bleeding episodes in patients with congenital fibrinogen deficiency, including afibrinogenaemia and hypofibrinogenaemia,2 and is currently funded under the National Blood Agreement. Key messages y Fibrinogen is an essential component of the coagulation system, due to its role in initial platelet aggregation and formation of a stable fibrin clot.3 y The decision to transfuse cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate to an individual patient should take into account the relative risks and benefits.3 y The routine use of cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate is not advised in medical or critically ill patients.2,4 y Cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate may be indicated in critical bleeding if fibrinogen levels are not maintained using FFP. In the setting of major obstetric haemorrhage, early administration of cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate may be necessary.3 Clinical implications y The routine use of cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate in medical or critically ill patients with coagulopathy is not advised. The underlying causes of coagulopathy should be identified; where transfusion is considered necessary, the risks and benefits should be considered for each patient. Specialist opinion is advised for the management of disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (MED-PP18, CC-PP7).2,4 y Cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate may be indicated in critical bleeding if fibrinogen levels are not maintained using FFP. In patients with critical bleeding requiring massive transfusion, suggested doses of blood components is 3-4g (CBMT-PP10)3 in adults or as per the local Massive Transfusion Protocol.

  • 5-HT Receptor Agonist Befiradol Reduces Fentanyl-Induced
    5-HT1A Receptor Agonist Befiradol Reduces Fentanyl-induced Respiratory Depression, Analgesia, and Sedation in Rats Jun Ren, Ph.D., Xiuqing Ding, B.Sc., John J. Greer, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Background: There is an unmet clinical need to develop a pharmacological therapy to counter opioid-induced respiratory depression without interfering with analgesia or behavior. Several studies have demonstrated that 5-HT1A receptor agonists alleviate opioid-induced respiratory depression in rodent models. However, there are conflicting reports regarding their effects on analgesia due in part to varied agonist receptor selectivity and presence of anesthesia. Therefore the authors performed a Downloaded from http://pubs.asahq.org/anesthesiology/article-pdf/122/2/424/267207/20150200_0-00031.pdf by guest on 27 September 2021 study in rats with befiradol (F13640 and NLX-112), a highly selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist without anesthesia. Methods: Respiratory neural discharge was measured using in vitro preparations. Plethysmographic recording, nociception testing, and righting reflex were used to examine respiratory ventilation, analgesia, and sedation, respectively. Results: Befiradol (0.2 mg/kg, n = 6) reduced fentanyl-induced respiratory depression (53.7 ± 5.7% of control minute ven- tilation 4 min after befiradol vs. saline 18.7 ± 2.2% of control, n = 9; P < 0.001), duration of analgesia (90.4 ± 11.6 min vs. saline 130.5 ± 7.8 min; P = 0.011), duration of sedation (39.8 ± 4 min vs. saline 58 ± 4.4 min; P = 0.013); and induced baseline hyperventilation, hyperalgesia, and “behavioral syndrome” in nonsedated rats. Further, the befiradol-induced alleviation of opioid-induced respiratory depression involves sites or mechanisms not functioning in vitro brainstem–spinal cord and medul- lary slice preparations.

  • Guide to Blood Plasma Products and Their Applications – Part One
    Vet Times The website for the veterinary profession https://www.vettimes.co.uk Guide to blood plasma products and their applications – part one Author : Amanda Boag, Jenny Walton Categories : Vets Date : September 26, 2011 Amanda Boag and Jenny Walton discuss indications for the use of plasma products, their production, and storage within the practice in the first of a three-part series FOLLOWING changes in legislation in 2005, veterinary blood banking and component therapy has developed rapidly within the UK. Practitioners now have easy access to canine blood and its products – notably, packed red cells and various plasma products. This series of articles will focus on indications for plasma product use, their production and storage, the administration and monitoring of plasma transfusions and will include a series of five case studies that have used plasma products. Indications for plasma component therapy Although well-defined indications exist for the use of plasma products in single or multiple coagulation deficiencies, indications for many of its other uses are empiric. Haemostatic disorders Plasma components are most commonly used to treat haemostatic disorders and are generally effective in treating both inherited and acquired conditions. Specific diagnosis enables selection of the optimum replacement product. It is important to remember that any samples drawn for diagnostic purposes (for example, measurement of clotting factor levels) must be taken either 1 / 5 before or at least 36 hours after transfusion to allow the measurement of endogenous levels. Inherited bleeding disorders Plasma components are administered to control active haemorrhage or as preoperative prophylaxis. Inherited bleeding disorders are associated with deficiency of a specific factor and the optimal product for treatment depends on which factor is lacking.
