  3. Introduction • Transfusion therapy • to transfuse the specific blood components needed to replace particular deficits for some medical purposes. • Whole blood • contain all blood elements • a source for blood component production. • Blood component preparation • the indication for the use of unfractionated whole blood  almost does not exist now • separating specific cell components from the whole blood • a lot ofdifferent methods (processes) or equipment  different use, efficiency and quality

  4. A Process of Separating Blood Components Whole Blood soft-spin centrifugation Packed Red Blood Cells Platelet-Rich Plasma hard-spin centrifugation washing Washed Red Blood Cells Fresh Plasma Platelet Concentrate freezing • Implied value (ai): Consider both the revenue contributed by patients or insurance and the costs induced by blood of collection, testing, preparation, preservation, storage, processing time, etc. • Demand limit (di). Fresh Frozen Plasma thawing; centrifugation; freezing Frozen Plasma Cryoprecipitate

Comment: There exist a lot of software tools for the linear programming problem, users just need to describe the BCPP as a linear program and then use those tools to solve it without implement it.

  8. Motivations • Linear programming (LP) problem • 2 drawbacks to solve the BCPP by LP: • The worst-case algorithm for the LP problem may not be executed efficiently (its time complexity is nonlinear) • It may not be convenient for users to directly describe the constraints of the LP for a general derivatives tree.

  10. Step 1: vertex vi in top-down fashion of T, xi is assigned di, and then the remaining amount is forwarded to the next level; if not enough to satisfy any demand limit, then return false. for convenience, we express that xi = di + yi. 3 10 100 0.8 0.2 5 4 4 8 0 0 0.2 0.5 1 0.3 12 7 8 9 2 1 3 1 0 0 0 0 0.7 0.3 2 13 6 6 0 0 Our linear time algorithm (1/4) 3 10 10+0 0.8 0.2 5 4 4 8 x4 x2 4+0 5+0 x1 x5 0.2 0.5 1 x8 0.3 12 7 8 9 2 1 3 1 x9 x6 x3 x7 12+1.6 7+13.4 8+0 9+4 0.7 0.3 2 13 6 6 6+1.8 13+5.2

  11. Step 2: vertex vi in bottom-up fashion of T, If vi is a leaf, then yiM = yi; o.w., yiM = minvjChild(vi){ yjM / rj }, yim = yj – rjyiM for each vj  Child(vi). (In fact, yiM is the maximal possible amount of vi flowed from its descendents and yim is the amount of every descendent of vj of vi after yiM is achieved) 3 10 10+0 0.8 0.2 5 4 4 8 4+0 5+0 0.2 0.5 1 0.3 12 7 8 9 2 1 3 1 12+1.6 7+13.4 8+0 9+4 0.7 0.3 2 13 6 6 6+1.8 13+5.2 Our linear time algorithm (2/4) y1m 0 10 y1M y2m y3m 0 2 8 4 y2M y3M y4m y6m y7m 0 11 2 0 1.6 13.4 6 4 y4M y6M y7M y8m y9m 1 0 1.8 y8M 5.2 y9M

  12. Step 3: Initially, all the leaves of T are marked. For each internal vertex vi in the bottom-up fashion of T, compute (vi). If  (vi) = ai, then vertex vi is marked. 3 10 10+0 0.8 0.2 5 4 4 8 4+0 5+0 0.2 0.5 1 0.3 12 7 8 9 2 1 3 1 12+1.6 7+13.4 8+0 9+4 0.7 0.3 2 13 6 6 6+1.8 13+5.2 Our linear time algorithm (3/4) v4, v5, v7, v8, v9 are leaves, and hence, marked. (v6) = max(3, 0.72+0.36) = 3.2 > 3 = a6 v6 is unmarked. (v3) = max(8, 11) = 8 = a3 v3 is marked. (v2) = max(4, 0.22+0.31+0.53.2) = 4 = a2 v2 is marked. (v1) = max(3, 0.84+0.28) = 4.8 > 3 = a1 v1 is unmarked. y1m 0 10 y1M y2m y3m 0 2 8 4 y2M y3M y4m y6m y7m 0 11 2 0 1.6 13.4 6 4 y4M y6M y7M y8m y9M 1 0 1.8 y8M 5.2 y9M

  13. Step 4: Let U = V.  vi U in top-down fashion of T, if vi is unmarked then output xi = di + 0; otherwise, do the following: Output xi = di + yiM; vj in the top-down fashion of the subtree Tvi rooted at vi, if vj is marked, then output xj = dj + yjm; otherwise, for evry children vk of vj, ykm ykm + rkyjm, and then output xj = dj + 0 (i.e., yjm = 0); UU \ V(Tvi) 3 10 10+0 0.8 0.2 5 4 4 8 4+8 5+4 0.2 0.5 1 0.3 12 7 8 9 2 1 3 1 12+0 7+11 8+0 9+0 0.7 0.3 2 13 6 6 6+0.6 13+2.4 Our linear time algorithm (4/4) 3 10 0 y1m 10+0 10 y1M 0.8 0.2 4 4 8 5 y2m y3m 2 0 4+0 5+0 4 y2M y3M 8 0.2 0.5 1 0 0.3 y6m 1 12 7 8 9 2 3 1 y4m 11 2 0 y7m 0 9+4 y6m 12+1.6 7+13.4 8+0 y4M 4 1.6 13.4 6 y7M 0.3 0.7 0.6 2.4 2 13 6 6 y8m y9m 0 1 13+5.2 6+1.8 1.8 y8M 5.2 y9M

  16. Blood Component Preparation Problem • Theorem. The BCPP can be solved in O(n) time. Proof. Skipped. • Extension: How to choose multiple standardized processes so that the total value is maximized? • The preparation and preservation of blood components are considered within a time frame. In practice, we may execute more than one process simultaneously within a certain time frame. • Fortunately, for the standardization of executing processes, the number of alternative processes is fixed constant. • The extended problem can be solved roughly in polynomial time.

  17. Modified Blood Component Preparation Problem • The deriving operation may be nonreversible.  require: the volume of the components at higher levels is more. • The Modified Blood Component Preparation Problem (BCPP’) Given the initial volume Q of the whole blood and an n-vertex blood component tree T (every vertex has its demand limit), determine the assignments of { xi } so that (1) the volume of the components at higher levels is remained as more as possible (2) while the demand limit of every component is satisfied. • Algorithm: Steps 1 and 2 are the same as those of the previous. Step 3: Output x1 = d1 + y1M ; xi = di + yim,  vi  V \ {v1}. • Corollary. The BCPP’ can be solved in O(n) time.

  18. Conclusion and future work • We have defined a new problem called the blood component preparation problem (BCPP), and proposed not only a linear programming solution but also a linear time algorithm for the BCPP. • Some variants are also given in this work. • A line of future work includes: • to investigate the tractability of the `derivatives graph problem’ on some special cases of graphs; • to take more factors (e.g., time and inventory) into account in the BCPP; • to evaluate the effectiveness of the BCPP applied in practical environment; • to investigate the sensitivity analysis and the critical paths of the BCPP.
