Study of Blood Component Therapy in Neonates

Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 3

Abstract

Objectives: Blood components used in modern day practice include, apart from whole blood, a variety of other products like Packed Red Blood Cells , Platelet Concentrates, Leucocytes and Plasma. Blood component therapy is a very common intervention practiced in new-borns. The objective of this research was to study the Indications, Pattern of usage & Acute Non-infectious Transfusion reactions of Blood Component therapy in neonates in Mahatma Gandhi Medical College & Research Institute (MGMCRI), Puducherry. Materials and Methods: In this study 200 neonates who received various blood component transfusion like Packed Red Blood Cells, Random Donor Platelets, Fresh Frozen Plasma and Cryoprecipitate, Whole blood (as comparator) in MGMCRI during the period of APRIL 2012 - APRIL 2014 were followed and studied in this cross sectional study. Observation and result: Neonatal Blood Component Therapy, Indications: Neonatal anemia - 35%, Thrombocytopenia - 53%, Others - 12%. Pattern of usage: Platelet - 53%, Packed RBC
