    Thanks DPruden for replying to my question. The correct HCPC is P9057 - Red blood cells, frozen/deglycerolized/washed, leukocytes reduced, irradiated, each unit The American Red Cross puts out a very good informational webinar every year that helps with knowing what you can and cannot charge for blood products. AABB-billing-guide for blood products nd related services is also very helpful. Thanks,

    Is there any p code for "Washed Irradiated Leukoreduced Red cells"? I am interested to know how others are billing for Washed Irradiated Leukoreduced Red cells, any help is appreciated, thanks.

    Hello SoftBank users, I need guidance to set up reconstituted RBC, want to prepare by using AS3 or AS1 red cells and thawed FFP, FP24 or RT<24hr Frozen <24hr plasma. Can someone share set up of reconstituted red cells? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

    Got it! I will test it out. Many many thanks!

    Thanks Sonia! Yes, you are right, I am looking for the reconstitued red cell product, please give me plasma codes also, need tp set up the database to combine plasma and red cells to make reconstitued red cells. Thanks for quick response.

    Good morning! We used to use only CPD units for babies but recently changed to only using Adsol units for babies (we no longer receive or use CPD units). Since then we recently had to customize a whole blood unit for an exchange but we were unable to complete in LIS (Soft) since it wasn't set up. II am looking for the ISBT codes for 1. final product - Customize Whole Blood 2. products used - Red Cells (Adsol) and Plasma to make whole blood. Thanks everyone!

    Finish can be scheduled via print scheduler so it can be done automatically.

    If you wash, plasma reduce, or specify the product as an open system, then the Bacterial Monitoring/Testing attribute value would need to be omitted. In Soft, our LIS system there is a field in the blood product setup to enter outdate for a open system. Every time product is divided, new label prints with product code with -A0, B0... and expiration D/T and label requires the label verification. So I am wondering if divided LVDS platelets can be labeled with the same product code with A0, B0....division and 4 hours expiration or not.
  12. LK11
    At our hospital, when apheresis platelets are aliquoted in the syringe we just change the expiration to 4 hours instead of changing the product code.

    I think SoftBank does let you crossmatch as long as an active TS is there.

    I need guidance from the SoftBank users. We want to make Pooled Cryo (E3592) by pooling 5 units of single Cryo. If anyone is willing to share the Soft setup, will be a big help to me. Thanks,

    Hello, SoftBank Users using Grifols Erytra for performing antiglobulin crossamatch? The AHG test have both test phases, Immediate Spin and AHG? If so then if you are willing to share the AHG test set up, will be very helpful to speed up the process. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks,

    Sorry, replying late. I received two emails, one was about the component prep and second one with 'not intended to send" in the subject line. I just read the component prep email, it will help me to build the test but still lot of confusion which will get clear when I start building the test. Thank you for taking time to respond the post.

    Hello, Do you have Soft as your LIS system? I am interested to know how QC and tests are set up in SoftBank. Do you transfuse aliquots of PGD tested platelets to the neonatal patients? Any help is appreciated. Many Thanks,
  18. LK11
    We are thinking of implementing PGD testing on day 5, 6 and 7. If any Soft users using PGD testing are willing to share QC and Test set up settings with us. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I agree with Malcolm, definitely looks like anti-H.

    Are these CONVALESCENT PLASMA thawed codes E9752, E9762, E9763, E9764 and E9765 for24hrs or 5 days expiration? Thanks,

      This is info from the ARC website. There are answers to quite a few questions, so it might be worth your time to check it out. If you get your product from another supplier, check their website for info. I'm betting they have something similar set up because everybody has questions right now.

      We don't convert any plasma to 5 day outdates at my facility (FFP use is not frequent) and don't have the capability to relabel, so I set all of our outdates to 24 hours for thawed plasma. I plan on treating this stuff like liquid gold - I won't thaw it until the nurse is absolutely 100% ready to transfuse.

    I'm also working on a build for convalescent plasma for the frozen plasma codes provided by ARC.  I found thawed codes for them, see below if anyone interested.

    Frozen Convalescent Plasma

    		 

    Thawed Convalescent Plasma

    E9747 Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/<=-18C|COVID-19  --> E9752 Thawed Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/refg|COVID-19
         
    E9754 Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/<=-18C|1st container|COVID-19  --> E9762 Thawed Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/refg|1st container|COVID-19
         
    E9755 Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/<=-18C|2nd container|COVID-19  --> E9763 Thawed Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/refg|2nd container|COVID-1
         
    E9756 Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/<=-18C|3rd container|COVID-19  --> E9764 Thawed Apheresis CONVALESCENT PLASMA|ACD-A/XX/refg|3rd container|COVID-19

      Thanks!

    yes, if patient gets transfused then outdate needs to be changed to 3 days. I believe there are some hosparam settings to change the outdate automatically.
  23. LK11
    thank you!
  24. LK11
    We use Soft as our LIS system and looking in the possibility of extending outdate of Type and Screen specimens to 27 days for outpatients. There are hosparam which can be set for outpatients and inpatients in Soft but I don't know how they will play in different situations. If anyone using Soft system and extending the outdate of TS then please advise. thanks,
  25. LK11

    Any ideas

    LK11 replied to lef5501's topic in Case Studies

    Looks like may be Kidd antibodies, since they come and go. I would do an eluate from pre and post transfusion samples, eventhough DAT is negative
