Blood shortage solution
WASHINGTON (AP) —
The blood bank in Las Vegas
pulled in 7,700 extra donations
last year without having to
recruit extra donors — at a time
when other parts of the country
had shortages.
The trick: technology that
lets one person give the amount
of red blood cells normally got
ten from two people, without
feeling woozy afterward.
Call it double-blood dona
tion, a small but growing trend
that blood bankers hope will
boost the nation's tight supply —
a supply many warn is likely to
get even tighter with new
restrictions on who can donate.
“We saw the writing on the
wall because of the shrinking
donor base and said, ‘We have
to do this now,’” says Jan Dalby
of United Blood Services, Las
Vegas, where double-blood col
lections are steadily rising.
Typical donations have not
changed much in decades: A
nurse sticks a needle in your arm
and fills a bag with whole blood.
The blood is shipped to a lab to
be separated into different com
ponents — red blood cells,
platelets and plasma — used for
different treatments.
Red blood cells make up the
typical transfusion; several thou
sand gallons a day are used.
Ensuring that supply is a chal
lenge. Only about 5 percent of
people eligible to donate blood
One donor, double the red blood cells
New technology allows for twice the amount of red blood cells to
be collected from one donor. The machine uses a series of motors
and clamps to stop, sort, and return portions of blood to a donor.
The process takes 35 to 45 minutes and it is painless.
1. Extracted: Blood is mixed with an anticoagulant to
prevent clotting.
2. Separated: A centrifuge container is filled and spun
at a high speed to separate out the red blood cells.
Plasma
3. Stored: Plasma, the
liquid part of blood, is
temporarily stored in one
bag. Red blood cells are
kept in another bag for
donation.
4. Returned: The centrifuge then
spins in the opposite direction, pulling
the plasma back through the machine
and into the body. The process is
repeated for the second unit of red
blood cells.
SOURCE: Haemonetics Corp.
do so, and increasingly strict
safety rules limit who can
donate. Meanwhile, demand for
blood is rising and periodic
shortages force hospitals to can
cel elective surgeries.
You cannot donate more than
about a pint of whole blood at a
time. But the new trend: Hook
donors to a machine that sepa
rates blood on the spot, keeping
the red cells and putting the rest
back into their bodies right away.
Because only part of the blood is
taken, banks can collect twice
the red cells — totaling about a
pint — from a single donor who
doesn't feel the loss.
NEWS IN BRIEF
French scientists clone rabbits
(AP) — French scientists say they have suc
cessfully cloned rabbits from adult cells for the
first time.
The team produced six clones, and four devel
oped normally with two dying. Two of the cloned
offspring were later mated naturally, resulting in
separate litters of seven and eight bunnies.
Scientists reported their results in the April
issue of the journal Nature Biotechnology. The
team was based at France's National Institute for
Agriculture Research in Jouy-en-Josas.
To create the clones, the team removed the
nucleus from one female's egg and fused it elec
trically with another adult rabbit's cumulus cell.
