  • (3) Both buffy coat and platelet transfusions evoked production of the non-specific blocking antibodies.
  • (4) This suggests that both blood transfusion and allograft are required for IL2 suppression and that this suppression may be related to the heart tolerance.
  • (5) He received blood transfusions every 2 or 3 weeks for the first 4 years of his life.
  • (6) Advances in blood banking and the availability of platelet transfusions have markedly decreased the incidence of fatal haemorrhage.
  • (7) The relationship between EPO concentration and the changes in Hct during the observation period did not differ between the non-transfusion group and transfusion group.
  • (8) A control group of five patients matched for age, transfusion dependence and sensitization status demonstrated no change during a comparable time interval.
  • (9) Use of blood and blood products increased annually as did the number of patients crossmatched and transfused.
  • (10) Early initiation of adequate antibiotic therapy, as well as symptomatic treatment using transfusion, steroids and anticonvulsants, are important.

  • (13) Of 145 consecutive hospitalized AIDS patients (CDC criteria), 34 (23%) presented with anemia requiring transfusion.
  • (14) Blood transfusion per se was not significant (p = 0.07).
  • (15) In recent years, apart from these well known risks, the immuno-suppressive effect of blood transfusions has been observed and thereby the possible adverse influence on the prognosis in cases of malignant disease.
  • (16) This instrument is valuable for use with intravascular fetal transfusions.
  • (17) The potassium load of transfused blood must be minimized.

Transfusion


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of transfusing, or pouring, as liquor, out of one vessel into another.
  • (n.) The act or operation of transferring the blood of one man or animal into the vascular system of another; also, the introduction of any fluid into the blood vessels, or into a cavity of the body from which it can readily be adsorbed into the vessels; intrafusion; as, the peritoneal transfusion of milk.
