Blood type AB is also known as universal recipient because no plasma antibodies are present .  True  False

patient can receive blood from any donor, using just the ABO and Rh typing criteria.(we will disregard the other minor groups). Which blood group do you think the patient belongs to?  options: A- B+ AB+ O-

Mrs. Xexy Lucero, GO, 25 years old whose blood type is O- (negative) states, "My partner is AB+ (positive)!" Mrs. Xexy questions Nurse Zasha about what blood type their baby will have. Which of the following blood types should Nurse Zasha advise Mrs. Xexy that the baby may have? (Select all that apply) a. Your baby could be type AB- (negative)." b. Your baby could be type O+ (positive)." c. Your baby could be type B- (negative) d. Your baby could be type O- (negative)" e. Your baby could be type At (positive)"

An individual with type A- blood could safely receive a transfusion of:     AB+ donor blood     B- donor blood     A+ donor blood     O- donor blood

THIS IS BABY's CORD BLOOD SAMPLE.  The letters on the cell represent BABY's RBC antigens, those outside of the cell are MOM's antibodies that have crossed the placenta and are in baby's serum. Use your critical thinking skills to determine the following: Mom's (maternal) ABO type. Baby's (newborn) ABO/D type. What antibody(s) can be found in the eluate from baby's cells?  Mom: AB  Baby: O pos Anti-A,B  Mom: AB  Baby: O pos Anti-Fya  Mom: O  Baby: O pos Anti-Fya  Mom: A  Baby: AB pos Anti-A,B

Samples of blood have been placed in each of the three depressions along with appropriate anti-serum (anti-A, anti-B, and anti-RH). What is the person's blood type? (Dark dots indicate clumping, bank circles indicate no clumping.) Blood type of diagram below: anti-A serum anti-B serum anti-Rh serum

What is the victim's blood type?

Melinda was working the day shift in the hematology laboratory.  The laboratory’s protocol called for three levels of blood cell controls to be run at the following times: 1) at the beginning of the shift, 2) within each run of patient samples during the day and 3) any times reagents were changed.  The mean for the low (abnormal) control for the red blood cell count was given as 2.00 x 10^12/L, the standard deviation was 0.15, and the confidence limit (acceptable control range) was 2.00 x 10^12/L +/- 2sd (or +/- 0.3). The first morning low control result was 2.10 (x 10^12/L).  In five subsequent runs, the low control results were 2.16, 2.19, 2.20, 2.22 and 2.25. 1.  Do these values represent a shift, a trend, or neither? 2.  Should Melinda be concerned about these values?  Explain.   3.  Does Melinda need to take any action?

An elderly couple was killed in an accident. No surviving relatives are known, so their estate have been willed to chasrity. Later, a man claims that he is their child. Although friends of the couple knew that they had a son, no record of this can be found. Medical records show that the dead man was A Rh’, his wife was B Rh- and the claimant’s blood tests as O Rh’. Does it appear that his claim is valid? Justify your conclusion.   A student in genetics is B’. She reports that her father is B- and her mother is O’. Give this student’s genotype for the ABO and Rh blood types.
