Epic Transfusion Administration System?
Eagle Eye replied to trondint's topic in Computer Systems / Software / ISBT128
BPAM users: If you do not have papercopy of the transfusion record what goes in chart? How much information you have in the EMR for that unit. Is the unit blood type documented in EPIC? Is expiration date documented in EPIC? -
Nope. It is consider manufacturing not pooling. When you are pooling cryo, final product is pooled cryo. When you reconstitute final product is whole blood and it is consider manufacturing. Same thing with volume reduction of platelet. .....you need FDA registration.

if you are making whole blood in other words combining RBC and FFP in your blood bank it is consider manufacturing and you need FDA registration. Same goes for volume reduction of SDP? and removing adsol from packed RBC---might want to check on that one also.

we went with SafeTrace because of "lock down" feature. From the QA view, I like to have one way to do things instead of multiple ways. for same reason we went with Safetrace....

cthherbal---they are discussing downtime .....how can you do BLV during downtime?
-
sometime it may be the product is not used as intended....at least for us that was the case for freezer......our biomed technician has been with our hospital for >25 hrs and he used to cover the area of the fan in the back so he did not have to clean every quarter. After so many discussion , finally bio med department head intervene and stopped practice....... because of cover/filter, the compressor was working too much and it died and had to replace it in less than five years...not anticipating any problems. we have two freezers, three double door refrigerators, platelet incubator, small ref. for ER, two plasma thawer and a cell washer....all helmer and very happy.....

Oooops Malcolm, I just read your post did not check the date on original post.....not good!
-
Good Luck David! and Congratulation....

between A neg and B Pos you are testing positive and negative controls....there is no need for AB patient
-
You should challenge CAP that the webinar said no need to do lot to lot for elukit....
-
I couldn't open the site....BUT i am interested...

As long as you have a process of segregating unprocessed units, i do not see a reason to keep this in stock for once in a blue downtime! Eventhough your LIS is down, if you have a way to segregate units, there should not be a reason that some one will pick unconfirmed unit.

Anyone had pooled cryo built in sunquest? Will you share the codes for Pooled cryo and thawed pooled cryo? Do you use THC to thaw?
-
Almost same as Mabel: the only difference, our admitting calls us first and if the patient is critical and getting transfusion we do not allow them to change the name. we require new specimen after name change and we do not issue blood with new name crossmatched to specimen with old name...
-
DI is required with most BB LIS system. (interface with ProVue and/or Vision)
-
Wish you the best, Good Luck John.

anyone using safetrace --divide in syringe. for me it is not working---with close system it keep same expiration for syringe. if I use open system it is changing parent code to open system code though the expiration stays same for parent and 24 hrs for syringe.

Epic and Sunquest BB Standalone
Eagle Eye replied to patilu's topic in Computer Systems / Software / ISBT128
EPIC does not have 510K approved blood bank module so test orders and results can be processed from EPIC CARE to BEAKER to BB system and back to same route. Product orders has to come directly from EPIC to BB system and crossmatch results from BB system to EPIC. (Product order can not come through beaker). I totally agree that you need to be involved in EPIC beaker build...most IT department do not care for blood bank and they will do whatever they want without involving Blood Bank. They like control!!! total control!!! -
Thank you Erwin.
-

I think we should not judge anyone without knowing exactly what is their intent?
