  2. 1. Preoperative deposit of autologous blood. Effects on inflammatory mediators

    Author : Monica Hyllner; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; allogeneic; autologous; complement; cytokines; blood storage; erythropoiesis; hysterectomy; plasma; prestorage leucocyte filtration; rHuEPO; whole blood.;

    Abstract : Blood contains complex cascade systems and substances that can be activated during the processing of blood components and storage. Allogeneic blood, i.e. blood from someone else, is normally separated into components before storage and transfusion, while autologous blood (the patient s own blood) often is used as whole blood.

  4. 2. Towards a detailed understanding of the red blood cell storage lesion : and its consequences for in vivo survival following transfusion

    Author : Andreas Hult; Christer Malm; Per-Arne Oldenborg; Martin L. Olsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Red blood cell; erythrocyte; transfusion; macrophage; phagocytosis; storage lesion; eryptosis; Class A scavenger receptor; transfusion medicine; transfusionsmedicin;

    Abstract : Red blood cells (RBCs) are vital for oxygen delivery to tissues and constitute the vast majority of all cells in blood. After leaving the red bone marrow as mature cells, RBCs have a lifespan of approximately 120 days before they are removed from the circulation by macrophages, mainly in the spleen and liver.

  5. 3. Modulation of Inflammatory Response in Surgical Trauma

    Author : Andreas Kvarnström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; inflammatory response; cytokines; complement activation; colorectal surgery; laparoscopy; inhalation anesthesia; intravenous anesthesia; autologous blood transfusion;

    Abstract : Surgical trauma results in the activation of inflammatory cascade systems in the body. Excessive systemic inflammation can lead to organ dysfunction in one or several organs. READ MORE

  6. 4. Perioperative blood saving techniques with coagulative evaluation in orthopedic surgery

    Author : Gustav Ekbäck; Anders Bengtsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Allogeneic blood transfusion, although often needed in major surgery with large per-and postoperative bleeding, is fraught with dangers such as clerical mishandling, immunosuppression and blood-borne infections. It is therefore important to find ways to avoid allogeneic blood transfusion by means of less bleeding, better tolerance of the bleeding or alternatives to allogeneic blood. READ MORE

  7. 5. Separation and Further Characterization of Hematopoietic Cell Populations Based on Phenotypic and Biophysical Properties

    Author : Josefina Dykes; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hematopoiesis; Blood Group; ABO-system; Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation; Cell Separation;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are multipotent and possess self-renewal capacity. Thus, they can sustain a life-long hematopoiesis and are also capable of restoring the hematopoietic system when transplanted to a patient. READ MORE
