the patient donates blood once a week for one to three weeks before surgery. The blood is separated and the blood components needed are reinfused during the operation.
advance banking of blood by the patient (known as autologous donation)
1) Allogeneic Blood Donation - A qualified blood donor donates blood for unknown recipient. The donation process in which a donor directly donates blood to a family member, relative or friend is called Directed Blood Donation. 2) Autologous Blood Donation - A person's blood is temporary preserved and will be transfused back at him after a surgery.
Autologous donation and transfusion.
Potential donors with a history of PCV are permanently deferred from volunteer blood donation. PCV patients may, however, donate blood for their own use (autologous donation).
Autologous blood (from the patient)
Certain modifications in collection technique make autologous blood donation an acceptable treatment for members of this faith.
When patients donate their own blood for surgery, it is called autologous blood donation. This process allows patients to store their own blood ahead of a scheduled surgery, which can be transfused back to them if needed during or after the procedure. Autologous donation reduces the risk of transfusion-related complications and is particularly beneficial for patients with specific blood type concerns or those with a history of transfusion reactions.
The FDA has issued a draft Guidance recommending all allogeneic, and selected autologous, blood donations be screened for T. cruzi.
PABD is generally indicated when there is a reasonable chance that a blood transfusion will become necessary, when the patient is in adequate health to donate blood, and when there is sufficient preoperative time for the patient to donate.
Autologous graft or autologous transplant.
If you are worried about having a reaction to someone else's blood an autologous donation might be the right path to choose. It is never a bad thing to do unless you have a low H&H to begin.
Polycythemia Vera is the clonal expansion of red cells (primarily), white cells and platelets. Since PCV is a myeloproliferative disorder of unknown etiology, FDA guidelines require permanent deferral from volunteer blood donation. Patients with PCV may, however, donated blood for their own use (autologous donation).
