Is blood or platelet transfusion the treatment of acute dengue infection in severe degree requires?

Platelet transfusion is generally recommended for severe cases of dengue infection if the platelet count drops significantly and there is bleeding. Blood transfusion may be necessary if there is severe bleeding or if there is a significant drop in hemoglobin levels. Transfusions should only be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional.


How can you blood level go from 6.6 to 7.9 with in 8 hrs the test was done at the same lab?

By blood level I assume that you are referring to Hemoglobin measurement. This rise in hemoglobin is possible in many different scenarios. If the patient was receiving a transfusion of packed red blood cells, we would expect to see a 1.0 mg/dL rise in hemoglobin post-transfusion. Another way this might be possible is due to the variation in instrumentation, repeat analysis of the same sample do not always result in the same value.

During a blood transfusion is the patients old blood removed from the body?

Not generally. The point of a transfusion is to replace lost blood, so removing blood as you put it in from the transfusion defeats the purpose. Sometimes before surgery, you will undergo "saving" blood, that is before surgery some of your blood is drawn and saved, so it can be put back in after surgery. (This is done weeks in advance, so your body has time to get its blood levels back to normal.) Student Doctor

If type O blood is transfused into a person with blood type B what will need to be done to the blood?

Since a patient with Type B blood has B antigens on their RBC's and since Type O blood has both anti-A and anti-B antibodies present in the blood plasma, the donor blood needs to be treated before transfusion. The Type O blood needs to be separated into packed cells and plasma, usually done by centrifuge, and only the packed cells should be used for the transfusion. Remember the anti-B antibodies are present in the Type O blood plasma and could cause serious damage in the system of a patient with Type B blood.
