Question 1 pts
The nurse is inspecting a unit of platelets prior to administering it to the
patient. What should the nurse expect to see?
Appears clear, light pink, or straw in color.
Contains aggregates of cells.
Contains many air bubbles.
Appears cloudy, light green in color.
Air bubbles, clots, or discoloration indicate bacterial contamination
or inadequate anticoagulation of the stored component and are
contraindications for transfusion of that product. Thawed fresh
frozen plasma (FFP) should be yellow, light green, or light orange in
color and clear in appearance. A unit of platelets should appear clear
and straw or light pink in
color. It is normal for cryoprecipitate to be cloudy.
minutes.
Question 2 pts
A young female trauma patient requires immediate massive blood transfusion on
arrival to the emergency department. The nurse should administer:
, Type-specific blood.
Typed and crossmatched blood.
O− whole blood.
O+ red blood cells (RBCs).
Although it is preferable to wait for typing and crossmatching to occur,
in an emergency O− blood can be administered until blood typing and
matching can occur. O− blood is desired in the premenopausal female
patient. If this patient were a man or a postmenopausal woman, it
would be acceptable to use O+ blood
in this situation.
Question 3 pts
When preparing to administer red blood cells, the nurse notes that lactated
Ringer's solution is hanging on the patient's intravenous (IV) pole. The most
appropriate action before administering the blood product is to cease
administering the lactated Ringer's solution and
flush the line with:
Heparin.
Normal saline solution.
Histamine.
5% dextrose.
It is contraindicated to transfuse any substance that might bind to the
citrate in the red blood cells. By flushing with normal saline the nurse
reduces the likelihood that citrate will bind to the
calcium in the lactated Ringer's solution.
