Same, I worked at one facility that would stuff the shelves, and my current department doesn't have a need to, so we don't. I don't recall any guidelines/standards on this, but if they are overstocked it could be a waste of money.....

We have Helmer fridges/freezers, that will still alarm locally and audibly if the built in temp probes detect something out of range. We also have the Primex temperature monitoring system, and there is one probe per fridge (even the double wides) that resides in the same glycerol bottle as the top temp probe. To my knowledge, the bottom temp probe on the larger fridges is not one that drives alarms, but will alert to being out of range. Inspectors have never questioned this process......

WOW! That's taking the old belt and suspenders about as far as possible! You are right, no one will ever fault you for not doing enough.

I don't remember any organization or agency that addressed this issue. I assume you have recording thermometer(s) in the refrigerators as well as other thermometers. If you are concerned you could get multiple stand alone recording thermometers and run periodic checks of different points through out the loaded refrigerators. Personally I never considered it an issue.

PathLabTalk would like to wish all members celebrating their birthday today a happy birthday. hareth666 (50)JAGAN MOHAN (62)bloodbanker84 (47)ashshaq (60)QCDan (47)drabmob (56)Kellar --karen.cls (36)PippySwe (45)Ramon M. Allen Sr. (56)dawit (42)Dr. Tariq aziz (54)

Hi, I am currently working at a facility which stuffs its BB refrigerator shelves to the gills with pRBCs. They are nut to butt, like sardines in a can. My instinct says this is not appropriate storage, and maybe something about not enough air circulation? However I'm drawing a blank on which agency might have a guideline or standard about this, if there are any. Any help would be appreciated!
