Confession
I am a museum tour guide for this topic. The curators in the back who know everything will be giving talks later throughout the meeting.
I may not know the answer to your questions off the top of my head. I do know where to find out.
I have no financial disclosures today.

Hematology and Coagulation
Historically blood was considered the essence of life.
Hippocrates described 4 humors: blood, phlegm, black bile and yellow bile 400 BCE.
Bloodletting was common to remove contamination and evil humors.
Breathing a Vein. James Gillray, published by H. Humphrey, St James’s Street, London, January 28, 1804.

Coagulation
Platelets are involved in primary hemostasis to create a temporary plug to seal vascular injuries
Secondary hemostasis involves plasma proteins in what is known as the coagulation cascade.
![Page 17: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Coagulation Cascade
3 pathways in the testing model
Intrinsic (contact activation) aPTT
Extrinsic (tissue factor pathway) PT
Common
Factors I through 13 typically depicted by Roman numerals (factor IV is Calcium) (factor VI is actually activated V)

Immunity
1) Innate immunity: non-specific first response
Physical and chemical barriers
Phagocytic cells
Compliment and cytokines
2) Acquired or adaptive: specific secondary response
Lymphocytes

HLA recognition
B cells form plasma cellss when stimulated by antigens
Plasma cells secrete immunoglobuins
![Page 21: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

RBC antigen antibodies
Antibodies to A and B RBC antigens are said to be naturally occurring as they are present soon after birth and do not require exposure to the RBC antigens.
Other RBC antigens such as RH, Kell, Duffy and Kidd require exposure of the immune system
![Page 27: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Blood Product Modifications
Irradiation: Use of radiation to inactivate donor lymphocytes to prevent transfusion associated graft vs host disease.
Leukoreduction: Use of filters to remove donor leukocytes from blood products. Leukoreduced blood units are deemed CMV safe.
Washing: Removes plasma from units of RBCs. Used Primarily in IgA deficiency to prevent anaphylactic reactions.

Electrolyte Physiology
Sodium Na primarily extracellular
Normal serum range 135-147 mEq/L
Plasma change does not change levels typically
Potassium K primarily intracellular
Normal serum range 3.5-5.2 mEq/L
0.25 mEq/L decrease with albumin replacement
0.7 mEq/L decrease with plasma exchange.
![Page 35: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Electrolyte Physiology
Chloride Cl primarily extracellular
Normal serum range 95-107 mEq/L
4 mEq/L increase with albumin replacement
6 mEq/L increase with plasma exchange.
Bicarbonate HCO3 pH buffer of blood
Normal Serum range 22-29 mEq/L
6 mEq/L drop with albumin replacement

Citrate
Used as anticoagulant in apheresis procedures
Binds calcium to inhibit the coagulation cascade
Acid Citrate Dextrose solution (ACD)
ACD A 20.6-22.8 g citrate/ml
ACD B 12.4-13.7 g citrate/ml
![Page 37: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Calcium
Electrolyte most affected by apheresis.
Most circulating calcium is bound to albumin
Physiologically active ionized Ca is small fraction
Photo from Wikipedia Commons
![Page 38: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Calcium
During apheresis ionized calcium decreased by three mechanisms.
1)removal of ionized Ca from plasma itself
2)binding of ionized calcium by citrate in the ACD solution
3)replacement fluid
Albumin replacement binds calcium
Plasma replacement introduces more citrate
![Page 39: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Hypocalcemia
Single plasma exchange using ACD infused at rates of 1.0-1.8 mg/kg/min will drop ionized Ca 25-35%
Some replace with oral calcium carbonate
IV calcium gluconate or calcium chloride
![Page 40: Jeremy Parsons, MD](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052405/586b04701a28abd31d8ba858/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Review
Very basic overview barely scratched the surface.
Apheresis science is highly technical and well studied.
My most active referring neurologist doesn’t ask me to remove antibodies from his patients. He asks for me to remove the bad humors from his patient.
