Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Understand the purpose of a cross-match table.

    A cross-match table illustrates the compatibility between different blood types for safe transfusion. It shows which donor blood types can be given to which recipient blood types without causing an adverse reaction (agglutination).

  2. Recall the ABO blood group compatibility rules.

    • Recipient A: Can receive from A and O.
    • Recipient B: Can receive from B and O.
    • Recipient AB: Can receive from A, B, AB, and O (universal recipient).
    • Recipient O: Can receive only from O (universal donor, but only receives from O).
  3. Construct the cross-match table.

    The table will have recipient blood types as rows and donor blood types as columns. A checkmark (✓\checkmark) indicates compatibility, and a cross (×\times) indicates incompatibility.

    Recipient \downarrow/ Donor \rightarrowABABOA✓××✓B×✓×✓AB✓✓✓✓O×××✓\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Recipient \downarrow / Donor \rightarrow} & \textbf{A} & \textbf{B} & \textbf{AB} & \textbf{O} \\ \hline \textbf{A} & \checkmark & \times & \times & \checkmark \\ \textbf{B} & \times & \checkmark & \times & \checkmark \\ \textbf{AB} & \checkmark & \checkmark & \checkmark & \checkmark \\ \textbf{O} & \times & \times & \times & \checkmark \\ \hline \end{array}
  4. Explain how to interpret the table.

    This table shows that for a safe transfusion, the recipient's blood type must be compatible with the donor's blood type. For example, a person with blood type A can receive blood from a donor with blood type A or O, but not from B or AB. This cross-matching process is crucial to prevent severe transfusion reactions caused by the recipient's antibodies attacking the donor's red blood cells.
