Complement Fixation
Risks associated with autologous blood transfusion include transfusion reaction if an allogeneic blood transfusion was inadvertently given and transmission of infectious agents if the blood became contaminated.
This person will not survive. They will have antibodies for the mismatched blood that was introduced to their system, the blood will coagulate (thicken) and they'll die.
When incompatible blood types are mixed, the recipient's immune system may produce antibodies that attack the transfused red blood cells. This can lead to the breakdown of red blood cells, known as hemolysis. Hemolysis can cause potential complications such as jaundice, kidney failure, and even death if not addressed promptly. In severe cases, a condition called hemolytic transfusion reaction can occur, which is a medical emergency requiring immediate intervention.
Acute immune hemolytic reaction
Sometimes problems occur with a blood transfusion, but that is supposed to be rare. Some people can have an allergic reaction to the transfusion.
A transfusion reaction is typically an acute hypersensitivity reaction to foreign red blood cells, which can occur immediately or within a few hours of the transfusion. Subacute hypersensitivity reactions usually take days to develop after exposure to the antigen, unlike the immediate onset of symptoms seen in transfusion reactions.
The blood given by transfusion must be matched with the recipient's blood type. Incompatible blood types can cause a serious adverse reaction (transfusion reaction). Blood is introduced slowly by gravity flow directly into the veins
monitor the treatment
Every blood transfusion carries the risk of allergic reaction, to anaphylactic shock, even if blood type is perfectly matched. If medication was also infused along with the blood, and the patient had an allergic reaction, it would be impossible to tell which sustance was causing the reaction: the blood? or the medication? Remember that every transfusion reaction can be deadly. As well, some meds may break down blood components. Therefore, never inject IV meds into a transfusion tubing or combine medications into a blood transfusion set.
These complications may include an acute hemolytic transfusion reaction (AHTR), which is most commonly caused by ABO incompatibility. The patient may complain of pain, difficult breathing, fever and chills, facial flushing, and nausea.
complement fixation
Most severe type, but rare incompatible blood incompatibility in multiple transfusions. Mostlikely to occurs when transfused red cells react with circulating antibody in the recipient with resultant intravascular hemolysis. When a group O patient is mistakenly transfused with group A, B, or AB blood. Patients receiving a major ABO- incompatible marrow or stem cell transplant with sufficient red cell content will likely develop an acute hemolytic reaction. Symptoms are: fever, chills and fever, the feeling of heat along the vein in which the blood is being transfused, pain in the lumbar region, constricting pain in the chest, tachycardia, hypotension, and hemoglobinemia with subsequent hemoglobinuria and hyperbilirubinemia. Prevention: proper identification of patients, pre-transfusion blood samples and blood components at the same time of transfusion.
