When I logged into Blood Bank Talk, the banner displayed "Hello sjlevine it appears that you have not posted on our forums in several weeks, why not take a few moments to ask a question, help provide a solution or just engage in a conversation with another member in any one of our forums?"
My response to this is that I would visit and post sooner if I did not have so much work to do, particularly in the area of ISBT 128.
I will say that what we have done so far has been a learning experience. We have instruments, such as the Abbott Commander, that will take ISBT 128 numbers, but leave them unprocessed, thus leaving it to us to process them before they go into our Blood Bank Information System. Abbott has no plans, they tell us, to make the commander ISBT 128 compliant, even though Anti-HTLV I/II and Anti-HIV assays are not yet licensed on the Prism.
Anyway, I came, I looked and I posted. And vented.
