  1. Anti-f may mimic Anti D+C with C showing higher dosage – can cause DHTR and HDN Please check the note at bottom..........Isn't anti-f is combination of anti-c+e?
  2. Current screen is negative so e- AHG crossmatch compatible unit. If screen was positive today I would give C-,K-,e- AHG crossmatch compatible units.

    Echo Problem

    recently seen missed anti-jka on a patient who had a history before. Echo gave negative screen but tech ran ID and only 1 cell weak postive on ECHO. Tube with PEG gave clean anti-jka (1+ to 2+).

    Echo Problem

    Yes. It has two centrifuge and two probes...
  5. there is lot more involved based on your location. You must check your state regulation...some require license...
  6. Are you doing MS with SBB or just SBB? SBB is very fast paced, I had done mine in 2004...
  7. I see the rational for the ISBT labeling as many facility irradiate after reconstituting WB and some facility without irradiator on site end up using irradiated RBC and plasma to it...
  8. Is there a chart somewhere which we can use to interpret RH results from Echo? how to interpret RH with following results...Echo gave interpretation for first three ... Eg. anti-D1 1+ and anti-D2 neg anti-D1 2+ and anti-D2 1+ anti-D1 0* and anti-D2 0 anti-D1 C and anti-D2 C---in this case ABO RH type gave C for all wells... Thank you in advance....

    Echo Problem

    I have seen same with different lot number where ECHO panels reactions are 3+ or 4+, screening on ECHO is 0/3+/4+.......PEG is negative??
  10. what kind of shelf life do you receive on them? DO you ever run into problem like hemolyzed units?
  11. too weak to titer. This can be more common with gel screening and tube titer.
  12. We run positive and negative control for screening cells using positive and negative antibody screening specimens which can be used as reactivity of the surgiscreen. We also run positive DAT and negative DAT specimens (Pos=rh Pos donor coated with anti-D, Neg=uncoated donor cells). We make suepension of this cells with MTS 2 plus and MTS 2 and run it on IgG gel card. this way you are testing your MTS diluents also. (Once we had negative control came up positive and it was due to contamination of MTS 2 reagent).
  13. Merry Christmas to all! Wishing everyone a very prosperous wonderful New Year.
  14. we had same problem once before and we prepared positive control in house once a week. We ran in house control against old lot and then used in house prepared positive control. There is a thred on this forum with formula on how to prepare the positive control. May be David posted it! We prepared it once a week and we only run control if we have a patient and we get one patient a week and we do not have 24/7 staff to run KLB so we had to find a way to do fetal screen...
  15. This is very useful information bmarotto....so you have soft in blood bank and what is your EMR?
  16. first file gave me TROJON virus alert, i do not think i will try....
  17. I do not think you should never change antibody screen result negative to positive. Your test result was negative screen so it should be reported as such. by changing it to positive , you are actually falsifying the records. Re: antibody in past? we do not worry about positive in the past and negative now as floor can view patient prior record in EMR and if they have a doubt they call blood bank regarding delay.
