Good morning. Anyone who uses this BB computer software would be willing to share their current SOP if your facility uses this feature. Currently it's only being used by Supervisory staff if the patient expires and we never receive a T&S sample. I'm looking to train my entire BB staff to use it for Emergency Issue and MTP. Thanks in advance.

I have a little bit more info on my case. In July she had a T&S done and the ABID was neg. She came through our ER as an MVA patient. We use Capture R method (Echo) All panels show a perfect Jka. The throw off is the Complement is w+ after 5 min incubation. she antigen typed Jka+. Is this a true Jka or possible auto-Jka or varient. Patient was discharged same day. So no extra samples can be collected for send-off to reference lab. Our hospital does not handle OBGYN patients.

Need advice on how to proceed with this patient. 29 yr. old pregnant female, Anti-Jka ID'd. DAT: IgG neg, C' w+. Jka antigen typing 2+. No transfusion history. Could this be a possible Auto-Jka?

Why is bovine albumin used as a potientior in a lui freeze elution. Most procedures I have read does not require it. Thanks

I need some clarification/help. What blood bank reagents need lot to lot comparison. Is it just the kits? Or all reagents? Would any of you be willing to share your forms. Thanks for your help. Looking at COM.30450 New reagent lots and shipments are checked against old reagent lots or with suitable reference material before or concurrently being placed in service – Daily QC of ABO, Rh, Antibody Screen satisfy the intent of the checklist item provided acceptance criteria are defined and outcome of results are recorded – May not apply to panel cells (see TRM.31241) – Does apply to kits (such as fetal maternal screen test kits)
