4.3 Kidney Transplant

A person with blood type B positive can donate to

• a recipient with blood type AB positive.

• a recipient with blood type O negative.

• a recipient with blood type A positive.

• a recipient with blood type A negative.

• a recipient with blood type B negative.

To test for tissue compatibility, a patient (the recipient) has a panel reactive antibody test done. For best outcome results of an organ transplant, the PRA value

• should be as high as possible.

• should equal 50%.

• should equal 100%.

• should be as low as possible.

• is not a good measure of tissue compatibility.

HLA

• is an antibody.

• is encoded in chromosome 6.

• is antigen on leukocytes.

• has only 2 alleles (forms).

In HLA typing, the best possible but reasonable match is

• a 6-antigen match.

• a 12-antigen match.

• at least a one-antigen match.

• a 50% match.

• a blood-type match.

A negative crossmatch test result indicates

• the donated organ will most likely be tolerated.

• that a donor's and a recipient's blood serum are cross-reacting.

• an organ transplant cannot be performed.

• the donated organ will most likely be rejected.

• an organ transplant can be performed.

Rh factor refers to

• the ABO blood type system.

• a similar typing system to ABO.

• the presence or absence of an antigen on blood cells.

• is denoted by A, B or O.

• is denoted by + or -.

Anti-B serum will agglutinate with

• B antigens.

• B antibodies.

• A antigens.

• A antibodies.

• O antigens.

If the mother of a child is blood type O+ and the child is A-, what blood type would the father be?

• A+, A- or O

• A+, A-, AB+ or AB-

• B+, B- or O-

• AB+, AB-, O+ or O-

What could be the genoptye of someone who has blood type B-?

• I^AI^B and Rh^-/Rh⁺

• I^Bi and Rh^-/Rh^-

• I^BI^B and Rh⁺/Rh^-

• ii and Rh^-/Rh^-

• I^BI^B and Rh^-/Rh^-

A person with blood type A+ can receive blood from

• a recipient with blood type AB positive.

• a recipient with blood type O negative.

• a recipient with blood type A positive.

• a recipient with blood type A negative.

• a recipient with blood type B negative.
