    I sent in some information last November and haven’t heard anything since. It’s now July 2021. Wondering what’s supposed to happen? Anyone else hear anything?

    Do you reuse these bags or use a fresh one each time? Also, what size do you use?

    Do you have a chart on your ultra low freezer? Changing the chamber temp to the alarm range may not be enough to make the chart pen move. Are you using isopropyl alcohol that has been prechilled for your plasma freezer?

    You would think the automatic alarm check should be sufficient. I don't know if CAP is OK with the chart not moving, but AABB told me that the chart pen should move to the point where the unit alarms...which means I have to mess around with the probe (which I hate doing since we could damage it).

    Hello. I need some assistance. In our blood bank, we are supposed to check that our chart temperature recorders move and record the temperature at the point where a high or low alarm sounds on our refrigerators, freezers, and platelet incubators. The problem is, most devices now have alarm checks that are in the computer software, so when they are activated, they do not change the cabinet temperature, and therefore do not make the chart pen move. Now for the refrigerators and platelet incubators, that's not a problem because we can warm and cool the probes. The problem is our freezers. We have a plasma freezer at about -25 C and a deep freezer at about -85 C. Does anyone out there do this procedure and how do you do it? Does anyone mind sharing? Is it even mandatory to do this?
