Episode 45 - Much A-B-O about Nothing | Transfusing A-B-O Mismatched Transplants with Dr Eoghan Molloy
Join our visiting expert Dr Eoghan Molloy - Multitalented transfusion medicine specialist and consultant haematologist at Cork University Hospital to teach us how to cross the ABO Rubicon and provide transfusion support in ABO mismatched transplantation. Visit the lab and see what happens to the forward and reverse group when you're in the middle of changing groups. Brush up on your major, minor and bidirectional mismatches as the generally mismatched Bloody Minded Crew learn from a real expert again.
