Hamid Noori: Blood Transfusion Types at a Glance
Hamid Noori, Medical Laboratory Technologist at World Health Organization, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Types of Blood Transfusion—at a glance:
- Whole blood: massive loss/trauma
- PRBCs: oxygen carry (anemia, hemorrhage)
- Platelets: clotting support (thrombocytopenia, chemo)
- FFP: clotting factors (liver disease, DIC)
- Cryoprecipitate: fibrinogen/FVIII (hemophilia)
- Granulocytes: WBCs for severe infection/neutropenia
- Autologous: patient’s own blood for planned surgery
- Exchange: replaces blood in hemolytic disease/poisoning”
