METHOD FOR DETERMINING SUITABILITY OF PRESERVED PACKED RED CELLS FOR TRANSFUSION Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G01N33/48 A61K33/14 A61P7/08 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: before transfusion, a preserved blood sample of 2 ml is mixed with an ozonised solution of 0.9% sodium chloride with the ozone concentration of 2 mg/l in the equivalent volume. The 15-minute exposition is followed by evaluating the 2,3 diphosphoglycerate concentration in the prepared packed red cell suspension. The 2,3 diphosphoglycerate concentration in the packed red cell suspension more than 6 mcmole/l testifies to the high effectiveness of planned hemotransfusion.

EFFECT: using the invention provides higher accuracy of determining the suitability of the preserved packed red cells for transfusion that ensures higher clinical effectiveness in the severe patients by fast and stable correction of oxygen delivery and consumption preferentially by functionally adequate red cells.
