Blood Donation

No, there is currently no recognized MN blood group system in humans. The ABO and Rh blood group systems are the most clinically significant blood group systems in humans.

To get a US federal safety sticker for a 1988 Honda NSR 80, you would need to have it inspected by a certified automotive technician or at a Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) office. As for the VIN plate, you can contact the manufacturer or a licensed auto parts supplier to inquire about obtaining a replacement VIN plate for your motorcycle.

O negative can only be given to individuals with O negative blood type. B positive can be given to individuals with B positive and AB positive blood types.

Women with O negative blood type may develop a condition called Rh incompatibility if the fetus has a positive blood type. This can lead to complications in pregnancy, such as hemolytic disease of the newborn. However, this can be managed effectively with medical interventions such as Rhogam shots given during pregnancy and after childbirth.

It is possible that the father's blood type could be A positive or A negative. Since blood type is determined by genetics, the father would need to have at least one A allele to pass on to the twins for them to have blood type A.

To test a resistor, you can use a multimeter set to the resistance measurement mode. Connect the multimeter leads to the resistor terminals and check if the resistance reading matches the labeled resistance value on the resistor. If the reading is significantly different, the resistor may be faulty. Additionally, visual inspection for physical damage or discoloration on the resistor can also indicate a bad resistor.

Yes, blood group A and O can be used in pedigree analysis to track inheritance patterns of traits within a family. By analyzing the blood group of family members across generations, geneticists can determine the mode of inheritance and potential disease risks associated with specific blood types.

The Bloods are a street gang that originated in Los Angeles, California in the 1970s. They are known for their distinctive red clothing, as well as being one of the most notorious and well-known gangs in the United States. The Bloods have a long-standing rivalry with the Crips, another prominent gang.

There are two medical terms for this process. Registration - the linking of a metal IV syringe to a vein the same way a small tube would pierce and connect to a larger sized tube. Extraction - the suction process using air pressure to remove blood and store it for testing and later use.

For best results:

* Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1-2 days before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period the percentage of accuracy is very low. * urinate for as long as possible on the foam like strip * wait for the results

If a loved one was in need of blood or they would die wouldn't you want them to be able to get that blood? If you give blood you can make another family grateful. and you may just save someone's life

Yes, certain organs, e.g., one of a person's two kidneys, or part of the liver, can be transplanted from a living donor.

High Hematocrit means that the person is unhealthy and suffering from any one of a number of medical conditions.

It also means that the blood is more viscous than is required and can cause damage to the heart.

YOU ARE HELPING CANCER PATIENTS WITH CELL GROWTH AND YOUR DONATIONS CAN HELP BURN VICTIMS ISSUES AS WELL. PEOPLE WITH BLOOD CLOTTING PROBLEMS ARE ALSO BENEFICIARIES FROM PLASMA DONATION.

If taken for hypertension, and BP is within acceptable limits, then potential donors taking Ramipril are eligible for volunteer blood donation. If taken for heart failure or with a history of cardiac ischemia w/wo myocardial infarction, then the donor would be deferred. Please contact the medical director of your local blood collection facility and review your case.

If you meant "is it possible to exchange all the blood with any substitute?" - then "no. that's impossible".

But probably you didn't mean that - would be crazy.

If your looking for some substance to substitute blood during a surgery, i.e. to avoid blood transfusion (as it is always a risky thing)... then yes. High tech hospitals are already doing surgeries without real blood. The problem is the quantity that can be substituted by the specific substances... density, osmolarity... (they check those properties).

So... please check some medical information sites or whatever... I know it exists for sure... those hospitals are really modern (and maybe very few). But don't let anyone tell you there wouldn't be any at all... there has been an international special medical convention in Geneva (Switzerland) about surgeries without blood and blood substitutes. Good luck.

Answer: Some of the Methods

Fluids: Ringer's lactate solution, dextran, hydroxyethyl starch, and others are used to maintain blood volume, preventing hypovolemic shock. Some fluids now being tested can transport oxygen.

Drugs: Genetically engineered proteins can stimulate the production of red blood cells (erythropoietin), blood platelets (interleukin-11), and various white blood cells (GM-CSF, G-CSF). Other medications greatly reduce blood loss during surgery (aprotinin, antifibrinolytics) or help to reduce acute bleeding (desmopressin).

Biological hemostats: Collagen and cellulose woven pads are used to stop bleeding by direct application. Fibrin glues and sealants can plug puncture wounds or cover large areas of bleeding tissue.

Blood salvage: Salvaging machines recover blood that is lost during surgery or trauma. The blood is cleansed and can be returned to the patient in a closed circuit. In extreme cases, liters of blood can be recovered using such a system.

Surgical tools: Some devices cut and seal blood vessels simultaneously. Other devices can seal bleeding on large areas of tissue. Laparoscopic and minimally invasive instruments allow surgeries to be performed without the blood loss associated with large incisions.

Surgical techniques: Thorough operative planning, including consultation with experienced clinicians, helps the surgical team to avoid complications. Prompt action to stop bleeding is essential. Delays greater than 24 hours can greatly increase patient mortality. Dividing large surgeries into several smaller ones decreases total blood loss.

You can find much information on Jehovah's Witnesses official website. Working with Jehovah's Witnesses, many hospitals all over the country have developed a Bloodless Medicine Program and Department. Englewood Hospital snd Medical Center, Englewood, New Jersey is the frontrunner.

When a person donates blood, many tests are run on that blood, B12 is not one of those, so yes, a person with a B12 deficiency may be able to donate. However, It would not be advisable to do so as it may exacerbate some symptoms this person may have such as tiredness and fatigue.

they ask people to donate blood so that they can give the blood to people who need it because they have lost alot of blood and or going to have a transplant or oporation.

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).

Yes

Yes. While occasional whole blood donations will generally have little effect on iron levels and body stores, frequent donations may decrease these amounts. Recently, the FDA has discussed the possibility of raising the the minimum hemoglobin or hematocrit levels for volunteer blood donation, or increasing the time allowed between donations, in response to lowered donor iron. Current guidelines require a pre-donation hematocrit of 38% or hemoglobin level of 12.5 g/dL. Whole blood donations may be given every 56 days, while double red cell donations require a 112 day deferral.

Therapeutic phlebotomy is very effective in preventing iron toxicity in hemochromatosis patients and decreasing red cell mass in red cell hyperplasia/polycythemia vera patients.

There are various issues you can encounter in donating blood. First, the equipment are not 100% safe. The needle, the storage bag and other materials should be sterile. Second, the place of donation is dirty. It should also be clean and neat - there should be no defects in donating chairs.

Blood is purified when it enters a nephron through the artiole, impurities are filtered out and emptied into the collecting duct. The purified blood exits the nephron through the venule.

Hope it helps ;)

No you can't donate plasma if you have had acupuncture.I was going to donate today and after 45 minutes of intake, I was asked if I ever had acupuncture and I said yes. I was then told I couldn't donate and I could come back in a year if I quit the acupuncture.

It's not a good idea. Lupus patients tend to have low white counts, low platelets, and suffer from anemia. Taking blood out makes this worse. If you are on chemo or biologics they won't want your blood anyway.
