It's a busy Friday evening in the blood bank and you have been receiving a steady
stream of type and screen specimens from the emergency room. Several of them
have positive antibodies screens which require further workup. One fo these
patients is a 46 y/o male whose hemoglobin has dropped from 8.4 g/dl to 4.6 g/dl
in the previous 8 hours (normal HgB for this patient demographic would be ~14
g/dl). Your work up reveals a group O patient with the following antibodies: anti-K,
anti-Fya. The prevalence of K negative in your donor population is 91% while the
prevalence of Fya negative donors is 37%. Two units of cross-matched RBCs are
requested by the physician. How many units of group O RBC units should you
phenotype in order to fulfill the request for two cross-matched units?
A) 2 units of type O RBC units
B) 3 units of type O RBC units
C) 6 units of type O RBC units
