Can a person with A- blood receive A plus blood?

Answer 1

A person with O blood cannot receive A red blood cells. A naturally occurring antibody in group O people (Anti-A) would bind to the A red cells and lead to dire consequences in the patient.

A person with O blood can receive blood group A plasma or platelets as the plasma or platelets from an A donor would contain Anti-B which would not bind to the O patient's red cells as they do not carry the B antigen.

Answer 2

your body will reject it and kill you

Not entirely true.

A patient with an existing antibody to Rh positive blood will suffer a reaction if any Rh pos blood is transfused. The severity of the reaction, including death, will depend on the amount transfused and other clinical factors...If the patient is bleeding severely enough that the Rh pos cells aren't around long enough to be reacted to, then we see no negative effects of getting the transfusion.

In a patient that has no irregular Rh antibody, anti-D, the transfusion shouldn't result in any symptoms...but will likely stimulate an anti-D which will cause a problem if the patient receives Rh pos red blood cell transfusion OR exposure again.

In emergency cases when blood supply is limited, it is common to prioritize women of child bearing age to receive Rh negative blood if required in order to not affect future pregnancy.

Given the choice of stimulating an antibody or allowing the patient to bleed to death, medical staff usually go with the first option.

Yes. A person with A negative blood CAN receive A pos blood.

Answer 3

The answer depends on what you consider to be "blood"?

In modern transfusion medicine, whole blood is rarely used. Instead, donated whole blood is separated into components, with each being administered as needed to the patient. For a type B patient, if whole blood is to be transfused, type B, Rh compatible whole blood is required.

With component therapy, In the case of a type B recipient, they could receive type B or O red cells (respective for Rh compatibility), type B and AB fresh frozen plasma (Rh is of no concern with FFP), any type platelets (respective for Rh compatibility; incompatible plasma may be removed prior to transfusion on the treating physician's or blood bank physician's order) and cryoprecipitate of any type.

Answer 4

No, you can only receive your blood type when you get a blood transfusion.

Answer 5

Yes, for red cell transfusion, group O NEG can be received by any blood group and Rh.

Answer 6

Someone with blood type B can't receive type AB blood. Since the patient with B doesn't have the A antigen, they are incompatible.

Answer 7

blood group A and O.

Answer 8

No, you can't.
