ANORRIS

I only QC my Enhance on the day of use of a tube antibody screen, which is rarely. I use a negative patient for my neg control and Ortho Confidence for the pos control.

check your email.....

I have been CAP and AABB for 30 years, and I only run pos QC,except both pos and neg for anti D. Never had a problem.

We use a screening cell for the neg control and Ortho Coombs Control (made to 0.8%) as the pos control for both poly and IgG Gel cards. We only perform IgG and Poly DAT's.

ORTHO CONFIDENCE

Off to reference lab...LOL We are very limited with what we can do. 2 panels...Enhancement only

AABB---Quarterly....states in the front of the Tech Manual. 19th Ed pg. 30

Best patient safety care..DO NOT ALLOW NURSING TO DO THIS!

We dropped the "30 min rule" years ago and use actual temp only with Blood Temp Indicator and take temp manually when returned.

Place a Blood Temp Indicator on the bag when it leaves the BB and inspect the indicator and take the temp when it is returned.

So no new specimen is required when they come into the OR and need blood??? Do you have an extra refrigerator for all of these specimens being held that long? What if they were transfused during the time of the T/S and their surgery and they do not inform you?

We have been AABB since the 70's. My manager dropped it last year. He dropped CAP also. We are just Joint Commission.

Does anyone have a reference on this?

Has anyone heard of the Blood Bank supervisor being required to be proficient in another department?

Then still follow up with a Fetal Stain? On all future pregnancies also??

ONLY if the FS is a strong positive.

manufacturer's individual instructions ...always

COME ON Y"ALL...ALL I WANT IS AN ANSWER...

Where did you get it? Company? Are they AABB? Joint Commission?

Where did you get it? Company?

Where is everyone/anyone purchasing their internal thermometer to check the temp on the new Ortho Gel work station?
