Herrmann has developed what we call TRALI, transfusion-related acute lung injury. It's a reaction to the antibodies in blood products, especially plasma, and it sent him into respiratory distress. Now, we can treat those
symptoms with steroids and BiPap, but if it happens again,
we will need to intubate him and put him on a breathing machine

Herrmann has developed what we call TRALI,
00:00:04.206 --> 00:00:07.077
transfusion-related acute lung injury.
00:00:07.079 --> 00:00:08.058
It's a reaction to the antibodies
00:00:08.582 --> 00:00:11.001
in blood products, especially plasma,
00:00:11.087 --> 00:00:13.689
and it sent him into respiratory distress.
00:00:13.691 --> 00:00:17.363
Now, we can treat those
symptoms with steroids and BiPap,
00:00:17.365 --> 00:00:20.938
but if it happens again,
we will need to intubate him
00:00:20.094 --> 00:00:22.942
and put him on a breathing machine.
