Sample Questions

Question 1
A 72-year-old woman with coronary artery disease has a hemoglobin of 7.8 g/dL after GI bleeding, now stable. Per AABB 2023 restrictive transfusion guidelines, the appropriate transfusion threshold for this hemodynamically stable hospitalized patient is:
Transfuse all patients with Hb <10 g/dL
Transfuse when Hb <7 g/dL for hemodynamically stable non-cardiac surgery adults; <7.5-8 g/dL for cardiac surgery or symptomatic coronary disease
Transfuse only after Hb <5 g/dL
No transfusion ever needed
Question 2
A type and screen reveals a positive antibody screen. Panel work-up identifies anti-Jka. Which phenotyping strategy minimizes DHTR risk in a chronically transfused patient?
ABO/Rh matching only
Phenotype-matched or genotype-matched units for clinically significant antigens including Rh (C/c/E/e), Kell, Duffy (Fya/Fyb), Kidd (Jka/Jkb), MNS (S/s)
No antigen matching needed
Only crossmatch with patient serum
Question 3
In an emergency situation where a blood type is unknown, which unit type is given?
O negative RBCs (uncrossmatched) and AB plasma (universal plasma donor — no anti-A or anti-B)
O positive only
Type-specific always
Delay transfusion
Question 4
A chronically transfused sickle cell patient has developed an anti-U (U-negative). Blood procurement steps?
Transfuse any RBC
Search AABB Rare Donor Registry / American Rare Donor Program for U-negative donors; typically from donors of African descent
Give O-negative only
Cancel transfusion plans
Question 5
A patient with sickle cell disease in crisis receives an exchange transfusion. Goal HbS percentage after exchange is:
Any HbS percentage
<30% HbS (acute stroke, ACS) — simple transfusion to raise Hb ~10 g/dL may be sufficient for mild indications but exchange preferred for severe
HbS <90%
HbS >50%
