  1. I agree with you about the inspector, however +/- 1C seems a little excessive for Blood Bank.
  2. That sounds awfully expensive and time consuming!:excited:
  3. Thank is not in the Transfusion Medicine CAP checklist.
  4. :boogie:If there is no history of transfusion or pregnancy in the past 3 months, we keep them for 10 days in the refrigerator. Our package inserts of reagents say testing should occur on samples less that are 0-10 days old. We have not had any problems.
  5. I move my old procedures to a seperate folder.
  6. :fingerscrI am not familiar with Meditech. But we had a similiar situation with an early version of another LIS. We "created" the antibodies anti-irr and anti-cmv and the antigens irr and cmv and it worked. I don't know if it will work for you.
  7. :cries:You can have the reports printed out of operations. I wish they had on line review.
  8. I am subscribed to it. It is pretty good.
  9. They probably did raise the proce by now!
  10. We do the same as Lcsmrz.
  11. ;)The Helmer Ultra CW is great. Had it for a year with no problems. Low maintenance.
  12. Can you give me more details about that FDA reg?
  13. We don't do an eluate on cords unless it its ordered, which almost never happens. Our docs just "treat" the baby.
  14. I believe their reference is from "Serologic Problem Solving" by AABB.
  15. Our Reference Lab rules out D,f,K,P1, and Xga on a single or heterozygous cell. Also they rule out C and E on one cell in the presence of Anti-D. I am interested in other opinions on this practice. Thanks.
  16. We also turn the internal lights off in the refrigerator. I don't know why Ortho can't just make opaque bottles!
  17. :whew:The baby was not anemic and fortunately the KB was negative. It would have been more complicated if either had been so. Thanks for your thoughts Malcolm.
