  1. 16. Antibodies during pregnancy : Aspects on complications during pregnancy and complications related to transfusion

    Författare :Miodrag Palfi; Olof Sjöberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pregnancy; Thl; Th2; hernolytic disease of the newborn; anti-D; IgG subclasses; IgG transport; post-transfusion reactions; acute lung injury; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The fetus acquires half of its genetic infonnation from the father and represents a foreign graft in pregnancy. The overall mechanisms contributing to immunologic tolerance and successful pregancy still are an enigma. Accumulating results of immunologic research, however, offer an explanation for many events in pregnancy. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Blood donors' long-term health : implications for transfusion safety

    Författare :Gustaf Edgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Epidemiology; hemovigilance; neoplasms; mortality; blood donors; blood transfusion; transfusion safety;

    Sammanfattning : Continuous attention to transfusion safety through improvement of disease screening and donor selection has succeeded in reducing the risks of transfusion transmitted disease to practically immeasurable levels. Despite this progress, surprisingly little is known about disease occurrence among blood donors and whether there are possible long-term effects of repeated whole-blood or apheresis donation.

  3. 18. Haemostatic changes in plasma for transfusion during preparation and storage

    Författare :Anna-Maija Suontaka; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :transfusion plasma; cold activation; contact system; coagulation; fibrinolysis; citrates; methylene blue; fibrinogen; stability;

    Sammanfattning : The haemostatic quality of plasma for transfusion is liable to be affected by techniques for preparation and storage. We have studied changes in the contact system, coagulation and fibrinolysis under the following conditions: blood drawn into a half-strength citrate anticoagulant solution, virus inactivation of plasma with methylene blue and red light, and plasma storage in the fluid phase.

  4. 19. Transfusion in critically ill patients : short- and long-term outcomes

    Författare :Märit Halmin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A blood transfusion is a common treatment for a range of conditions. Over 112 million blood transfusions are administered each year worldwide and many patients are thereby exposed to the possible risks associated with the procedure. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Platelet Inhibition and Bleeding Complications in Cardiac Surgery Patients - Clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Emma C. Hansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute coronary syndrome; Bleeding complications; Cardiac surgery; Platelet aggregation inhibitors; Platelet transfusion;

    Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with acetylsalicylic acid and a P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel, ticagrelor, or prasugrel) reduces thrombotic events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), but it is also associated with an increased risk of bleeding complications. The aim of this project was to investigate the prevalence and effects of platelet inhibition in the context of cardiac surgery, the bleeding problems that may occur, and treatment of bleeding complications.
