TEST and TEACH PROGRAM
2012-1 QUESTIONS
The following questions were taken from various sources and designed to not only test and teach but also encourage laboratory
staff to further their knowledge in the field of immunohaematology.
It is recommended that all staff actively working in the blood bank laboratory perform this exercise, initially without the benefit of
the answers. Use the table to record your answers and score. Most answers are referenced so participants may read further if
interested. The completed document should be filed as evidence of on-going education.
THIS IS AN EDUCATIONAL EXERCISE - PLEASE DO NOT RETURN RESULTS
Answers Guide - Select one (1) answer option only, i.e. only one of the options given is correct.
1.
With respect to anti-IH select the most appropriate response.
a. This is a benign usually cold reacting antibody found in group A1, B and A1B individuals that has never been
associated with a haemolytic transfusion reaction
b. This is an antibody found in individuals with the Bombay and para-Bombay phenotype that is responsible with severe
haemolytic transfusion reactions
c. This is a benign usually cold reacting antibody found in group A1, B and A1B individuals that has been reported to
cause a severe haemolytic transfusion reaction
d. This is a benign usually cold reacting antibody found in group O individuals that has been reported to cause a severe
haemolytic transfusion reaction
2.
In the investigation of Delayed Haemolytic Transfusion Reaction, crossmatching the post-transfusion patient’s plasma
against the original donor units may be helpful in establishing the diagnosis.
a. False
b. True
