Crossmatching
-Trial transfusion within a test tube between donor RBCs and recipient serum to
detect a potential for serious transfusion reaction
- 3 Phases:
-Reconfirm ABO-Rh typing
- Detect antibodies that are incomplete or do not agglutinate
easily
- Detect antibodies in other blood group systems (ie. Rh, Kell,
Kidd, Duffy)
Antibody screening
- Trial transfusion between the recipients serum and commercially supplied RBCs
with antigens that will react with antibodies commonly implicated in non-ABO
hemolytic transfusion reactions
Donors serum also screened for unexpected antibodies to prevent their
introduction to the recipients serum
Otherwise known as the Coombs test.

Coagulation Cascade
Pathophysiology of Coagulopathy in
Massive Transfusions
Coagulopathy results from:
hemodilution
hypothermia
unfractionated blood products
DIC
Hemodilution
Crystalloids
-1/4 stays intravascularly, 3/4
goes into interstium
-Dilute platelet and coagulating
factors
Colloids
-Hespan and Dextran impair
platelet adhesion by decreasing
von Willebrand factor activity
-Impair thrombin and clot
formation
Hypothermia
Hypothermia (<35 degrees):
slows activity of coagulation cascade
reduces synthesis of coagulation
factors
increase fibrinolysis
decrease platelets and affects platelet
function
Hypothermia and acidosis cause
significant bleeding despite adequate
blood, plasma and plt replacement
