Trasplantes de riñón sin transfusión de sangre para testigos de Jehová

Los testigos de Jehová rechazan las transfusiones de sangre, lo que, entre otras cosas, complica sus posibilidades de recibir un trasplante. Sin embargo, el Hospital del Mar de Barcelona acaba de poner en marcha un protocolo de trasplante renal apto para las personas de esta confesión religiosa.

El procedimiento, que garantiza que no se hará ninguna transfusión de sangre durante todo el proceso, ya se ha probado con éxito en dos pacientes en 2016 y 2017. Uno de ellos se realizó con un donante vivo, que también era testigo de Jehová, y el otro con el órgano de un paciente fallecido.

Según explican desde el centro sanitario, se puede realizar un trasplante renal sin contar con la opción de la transfusión si se sigue un protocolo específico que abarca los preparativos antes de la cirugía, así como la intervención y la atención postoperatoria.

Lo primero que se hace una vez que el paciente es aceptado como candidato a trasplante, explica Marta Crespo, jefa de sección de Nefrología del Hospital del Mar, es someter al enfermo a «un tratamiento con eritropoyetina» -un fármaco que estimula la producción de glóbulos rojos- "para garantizar que su organismo tiene unos buenos niveles de hemoglobina". No se permite, por ejemplo, que el paciente tenga un cierto grado de anemia, que sí es aceptable en otros pacientes (la falta de hierro es habitual en los pacientes con insuficiencia renal), porque en estos casos "el margen de seguridad debe ser más amplio" ya que la opción de la transfusión si se producen grandes pérdidas de sangre no se contempla.

Además, se informa al paciente sobre determinadas actuaciones posibles, como el uso de factores de la coagulación aislados, que podrían aplicarse en caso de sangrado agudo.

Ya durante la intervención, se utiliza un equipo denominado cell saver, que lo que hace es recuperar parte de la sangre del paciente si se producen hemorragias para, después de un proceso de limpiado, volver a transfundirle directamente sus propios glóbulos rojos. En caso necesario, el paciente recibe, por tanto, una especie de autotransfusión.

Al finalizar la cirugía, el enfermo se traslada a la Unidad de Reanimación Postquirúrgica, "donde es monitorizado y controlado para detectar precozmente un posible sangrado". Es importante realizar una detección rápida de cualquier problema en estos casos, subraya Lluís Cecchini, jefe del servicio de Urología y Cirugía del Trasplante del centro barcelonés, ya que, "como la transfusión está descartada, deben considerarse tratamientos más agresivos, como la realización de una nueva intervención quirúrgica".

Realizar cualquier trasplante renal es un procedimiento complejo en el que "hasta un 40% de los pacientes necesitan una transfusión", apunta Cecchini. Hacerlo en un paciente que rechaza este último procedimiento es, por tanto, aún más complejo y "obliga a tener un cuidado específico en determinados aspectos de la cirugía y durante el postoperatorio".

De cualquier manera, el riesgo de fallecimiento para los pacientes que rechazan recibir sangre de un donante es más alto ya que, aunque existen medidas para tratar de recuperar una pérdida importante de volumen sanguíneo, llegados a un punto crítico, no hay alternativas igual de efectivas que una transfusión.

Tanto Crespo como Cecchini recuerdan que, para poder llevar a cabo este protocolo, ha sido necesario que los profesionales sanitarios implicados hayan aceptado renunciar a las transfusiones como opción terapéutica en el caso de los testigos de Jehová.

"El equipo del centro ha adquirido el compromiso de respetar las creencias y valores de este colectivo y no realizar ninguna transfusión de sangre durante el proceso de trasplante", comentan.

El protocolo desarrollado "podría aplicarse en otro tipo de trasplantes o cirugías de otras características", explica Cecchini, aunque en algunos casos, como las cirugías oncológicas, podría no ser recomendable.

    • It appears to me that this is a key aspect of the 2030 initiative ideology. While the Rothschilds were indeed influential individuals who were able to sway governments, much like present-day billionaires, the true impetus for change stems from the omnipotent forces (Satan) shaping our world. In this case, there is a false God of this world. However, what drives action within a political framework? Power! What is unfolding before our eyes in today's world? The relentless struggle for power. The overwhelming tide of people rising. We cannot underestimate the direct and sinister influence of Satan in all of this. However, it is up to individuals to decide how they choose to worship God. Satanism, as a form of religion, cannot be regarded as a true religion. Consequently, just as ancient practices of child sacrifice had a place in God's world, such sacrifices would never be accepted by the True God of our universe. Despite the promising 2030 initiative for those involved, it is unfortunately disintegrating due to the actions of certain individuals in positions of authority. A recent incident serves as a glaring example, involving a conflict between peaceful Muslims and a Jewish representative that unfolded just this week. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/11/us-delegation-saudi-arabia-kippah?ref=upstract.com Saudi Arabia was among the countries that agreed to the initiative signed by approximately 179 nations in or around 1994. However, this initiative is now being undermined by the devil himself, who is sowing discord among the delegates due to the ongoing Jewish-Hamas (Palestine) conflict. Fostering antisemitism. What kind of sacrifice does Satan accept with the death of babies and children in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and other conflicts around the world, whether in the past or present, that God wouldn't? Whatever personal experiences we may have had with well-known individuals, true Christians understand that current events were foretold long ago, and nothing can prevent them from unfolding. What we are witnessing is the result of Satan's wrath upon humanity, as was predicted. A true religion will not involve itself in the politics of this world, as it is aware of the many detrimental factors associated with such engagement. It understands the true intentions of Satan for this world and wisely chooses to stay unaffected by them.
    • This idea that Satan can put Jews in power implies that God doesn't want Jews in power. But that would also imply that God only wants "Christians" including Hitler, Biden, Pol Pot, Chiang Kai-Shek, etc. 
    • @Mic Drop, I don't buy it. I watched the movie. It has all the hallmarks of the anti-semitic tropes that began to rise precipitously on social media during the last few years - pre-current-Gaza-war. And it has similarities to the same anti-semitic tropes that began to rise in Europe in the 900's to 1100's. It was back in the 500s AD/CE that many Khazars failed to take or keep land they fought for around what's now Ukraine and southern Russia. Khazars with a view to regaining power were still being driven out into the 900's. And therefore they migrated to what's now called Eastern Europe. It's also true that many of their groups converted to Judaism after settling in Eastern Europe. It's possibly also true that they could be hired as mercenaries even after their own designs on empire had dwindled.  But I think the film takes advantage of the fact that so few historical records have ever been considered reliable by the West when it comes to these regions. So it's easy to fill the vacuum with some very old antisemitic claims, fables, rumors, etc..  The mention of Eisenhower in the movie was kind of a giveaway, too. It's like, Oh NO! The United States had a Jew in power once. How on earth could THAT have happened? Could it be . . . SATAN??" Trying to tie a connection back to Babylonian Child Sacrifice Black Magick, Secret Satanism, and Baal worship has long been a trope for those who need to think that no Jews like the Rothschilds and Eisenhowers (????) etc would not have been able to get into power in otherwise "Christian" nations without help from Satan.    Does child sacrifice actually work to gain power?? Does drinking blood? Does pedophilia??? (also mentioned in the movie) Yes, it's an evil world and many people have evil ideologies based on greed and lust and ego. But how exactly does child sacrifice or pedophilia or drinking blood produce a more powerful nation or cabal of some kind? To me that's a giveaway that the authors know that the appeal will be to people who don't really care about actual historical evidence. Also, the author(s) of the video proved that they have not done much homework, but are just trying to fill that supposed knowledge gap by grasping at old paranoid and prejudicial premises. (BTW, my mother and grandmother, in 1941 and 1942, sat next to Dwight Eisenhower's mother at an assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Eisenhower family had been involved in a couple of "Christian" religions and a couple of them associated with IBSA and JWs for many years.)
