Don’t ever let anyone talk you into taking any other type than O-!

It had better be a REAL emergency for an O neg. to be transfused with O pos. It is a one time deal.

Our doctor said ,that the only time that he would ever cross type a patient, is if blood is pouring out faster that they can put it in.

Do we have anyone up on their hematology? What about Kell, Kidd, Duffy, etc.? It’s been a while for cracking the books. Are these all carbohydrate antigens expressed on red blood cells too?

You said that you are O negative! O- persons should not be transfused with any other blood type no matter what.

My last immunology class was in grad school in 1976. I'm very rusty on the topic.
