Editorial Reviews for Textbook of Blood Banking and Transfusion Medicine
|
This comprehensive book on transfusion practices and immunohematology offers concise, thorough guidelines on the best ways to screen donors, store blood components, ensure safety, anticipate the potentially adverse affects of blood transfusion, and more. It begins with the basics of genetics and immunology, and then progresses to the technical aspects of blood banking and transfusion. Chapters are divided into sections on: Basic Science Review; Blood Group Serology; Donation, Preparation, and Storage; Pretransfusion Testing; Transfusion Therapy; Clinical Considerations; and Safety, Quality Assurance, and Data Management. Developed specifically for medical technologists, blood bank specialists, and residents, the new edition conforms to the most current standards of the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB). * Expert Opinion essays, written by well-known, frequently published experts, discuss interesting topics of research or new advances in the field. * Important terms are defined in the margins of the pages on which they appear, enabling readers to easily check the meaning of an unfamiliar term where it appears in context. * Margin notes highlight important concepts and points, remind readers of previously discussed topics, offer an alternative perspective, or refer readers to other sources for further information. * Material conforms to the most recent AABB standards for the most accurate, up-to-date information on immunohematology. * Advanced concepts, beyond what is required for entry-level practice, are set apart from the rest of the text so readers can easily differentiate between basic and advanced information.

Summary: Frustrating and disappointing
Comment: I am sorry, but I found this book to be very confusing and incomplete in some ways. As a 4th year MT student, this text was very disjointed. Things were never where I, and logic, would have placed things. I was constantly having to go back to the index or table of contents to find information that should have been right where I was. Information seemed incomplete, too much about the genetics, and not enough about the day to day significance of specific antibody/antigens. A nice chart or two would have been nice, one that had all the RBC antigens on it. The chapter on Rh was incoherent...especially when trying to cover the Fischer Race schemes, as well as the chapter on secretors. This text was extremely frustrating to use.

Summary: SBB Program
Comment: This text was suggested for the SBB program. It is very good but is not clear in some of its definitions and explanations. Some views seem contrary to other texts we are using.

Summary: Great service and even better text book
Comment: I ordered my textbooks through Amazon.com two weeks before school because my college's bookstore ran out. I was worried about not having them in time, but Amazon was not only cheaper but also speedier! I had the books in one week, and I saved about $50 on two books. Now, that is impressive. I will definitely order from Amazon again.
