Description
Session Description: Trauma, hemolysis, and dodgy bone marrow function can land a cat in the hot (cold?) seat of an anemic crisis. Clinicians need to act fast and resuscitate anemic cats with type matched red blood cell products. This course will walk the care team through rapid identification of an appropriate feline donor by providing a how-to guide to using point of care blood typing and crossmatching. Techniques for feline blood donor collection are modified to be accomplished in the emergency setting. A discussion of possible transfusion associated adverse events will encourage the adoption of best practices for safe administration of these products to the anemic patient.
Session Objectives:
1. Identify an appropriate feline donor to provide blood products to an anemic emergency patent.
2. Perform safe blood product administration to an anemic recipient using point of care blood typing and cross matching
3. Monitor the patient for transfusion associated complications and understand how to respond to these events
