I recommend to all that you poke around on the NHSN site. I'm in Massachusetts, we are required to report all of our transfusion statistics, including adding each transfusion reaction separately. It's a fair amount of work, but required by our DPH. We use their descriptions for our transfusion reaction categories.

Extending TS for surgery patients-please advise
Cliff replied to jason009's topic in Transfusion Services
For our pre-op patients, if they have not been pregnant or transfused in the past 3 months, we'll make the specimen good for 28 days. We do the type and screen within 3 days of collection. Once the patient has been transfused, we set the outdate to 3 days. -
