Medicine is striding by leaps and bounds trying in every possible way to match the pace of technological progress. However, there are laws of nature - unshakable and unshakable. In this case, we are talking about gender differences that cannot be ignored during blood transfusion and organ transplantation.
Female blood - mortal danger for men
According to a review in the famous medical publication The Journal of the American Medical Association, men and women are very different biologically, which is relevant to the blood composition of people of different sexes, writes Rambler. Journalists say that a pregnant woman’s blood transfusion is fraught with mortal danger to a man. The latter are at risk of death in 20% of cases!
At the same time, the blood of non-pregnant women does not pose a danger to representatives of the strong half of humanity. Consequently, blood transfusion according to the "man-woman" scheme is also not associated with any consequences for life.
Features of intergender transplantology
In this case, the outcome of the operation depends largely on the gender of the patient and the donor. As an example, a heart transplant procedure will be considered.
Numerous studies, according to The Journal of the American Medical Association, have confirmed that organ survival is much higher if the donor and recipient are of the same sex. Serious consequences are primarily due to the difference in the size of the organs of women and men. For example, the female heart is much smaller than the male, which has a natural biological cause. After all, the male body needs to cope with a much stronger blood flow per unit of time.
Therefore, women should not have male organ transplants. Otherwise, the risk of rejection of donor tissue in the postoperative period and subsequent years increases. In addition, the likelihood of the patient's death increases.
