Haemoglobin Screening Methods in Blood Donors- Where Do We Stand Now? [PDF]

National Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2019
Introduction: Haemoglobin screening is one of the most important screening tests done for blood donors in order to prevent blood collection from an anaemic donor and ensure an optimum quality of blood product for the recipients.

Welfare and Physiological Consequences of Non‐Lethal Blood Sampling From the Caudal Vasculature of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.)

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate welfare and health effects following single and repeated non‐lethal blood sampling from the caudal vasculature of Atlantic salmon. Two experiments were conducted at three different temperatures: a 6‐week freshwater experiment with fish weighing 50–100 g, undergoing up to four blood withdrawals, and a

Blood draw site and analytic device influence hemoglobin measurements

PLoS ONE, 2022
Anemia is a continuing global public health concern and a priority for international action. The prevalence of anemia is estimated from the hemoglobin (Hb) levels within target populations, yet the procedures for measuring Hb are not standardized and ...

Comparability of hemoglobin concentration measurements from the HemoCue Hb201+ and Hb801 in birds and a mammal with and without nucleated red-blood cells

Journal of Field Ornithology
HemoCue analyzers are standard point-of-care devices for measuring blood hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]). The utility of these photometers has been demonstrated for all vertebrate lineages including birds, yet because most vertebrates except mammals ...

Validation of Point of Care Hemoglobin Estimation Among Pregnant Women Using Digital Hemoglobinometers (HemoCue 301 and HemoCue 201+) as Compared with Auto-Analyzer

Indian Journal of Hematology and Blood Transfusion, 2019
Accurate and reliable point of care tests (POCTs) for hemoglobin estimation is essential for early diagnosis and management of anemia. This study was aimed to assess the reliability and validity of two versions of digital hemoglobinometer (HemoCue 201+ and HemoCue 301) compared to the gold standard Sysmex autoanalyzer for hemoglobin estimation ...

Neurometabolic Response to Apneic Stimuli Tracks Global Grey Matter Volume Deficits in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been linked to cortical atrophy and increased risk of neurodegeneration, a process potentially mediated by neurometabolic dysregulation. Recent work using high temporal‐resolution metabolic MRI found greater changes in the cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen consumption (CMRO2) during cued breath‐hold stimuli ...

Evaluation of the HemoCue^® WBC System as a Point of Care Diagnostic Tool for White Blood Cell Quantification in Pinnipeds

Oceans, 2022
Point of care (POC) hematology testing can be valuable in triage and field settings. We assessed the accuracy between the HemoCue® WBC system and two comparative analyzers, as well as the precision of the HemoCue® WBC system in five different pinniped ...

Nocturnal Sleep Breathing Patterns in Healthy Adolescents Residing at Very High Altitudes in Bolivia

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Data on sleep and respiratory patterns among adolescents residing at very high altitude (> 3500 m) remain scarce, and altitude‐related physiological differences may influence these parameters. Studying adolescents at different very high altitudes is crucial, as subtle environmental variations could affect sleep‐related oxygenation and ...

Use of long-term microdialysis subcutaneous glucose monitoring in the management of neonatal diabetes - A first case report [PDF]

, 2006
In neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM), a rare genetic disorder, insulin therapy is required but the management is difficult. Frequent blood glucose determinations are necessary in most cases. Microdialysis subcutaneous glucose monitoring (MSGM) is feasible

Anaemia Among Mother–Child Dyads in India: Trends, Drivers, and Future Projections

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anaemia among mothers and their children is a widespread public health challenge with profound consequences for individuals and societies. While anaemia has been studied separately in women and children, there remains a literature gap examining anaemia in mother‐child dyads, limiting insights on interventions that may simultaneously address ...
