  1. Can anyone help me with finding what can and cannot be stored with blood products?? I've looked through AABB and FDA and didn't see anything special about requirements. I know it's BB knowledge to store your crossmatch units on a shelf, autologous on a different shelf, etc. Are there any written rules? The reason I'm asking is we are starting transplants and they need a refrigerator to store things in. HELP!!

    We've been using 2 Hettich centrifuges for quite a few years now. They have been very reliable and run quiet. The down side is that I find them a little tricky to program, which fortunately I don't need to do that after the initial set up. (The upside to that is that my mystery tech who feels urges to tinker with stuff can't figure them out, so they leave them alone.)

    What models do you have?

  3. I've seen a few threads about doing QC for gel, but was wondering if anyone was willing to share their procedure with me? We currently do ABO in tube and screens in IgG gel cards. We are looking to switch to ORTHO's ABD Reverse Gel cards and still do our screens using the 0.8% Surgiscreen. Any opinions on best option for QC? I see where some are using the ORTHO Confidence System? Some are using their Immucor CorQC tube reagents. What's the best way to switch and with what reagents for QC?

     

    Also for retypes, use the Ortho ABD card? I'm assuming this has to be QC'd as well?

    What about Cord Blood? Use the Ortho ABD cards? Does this detect weak D?
