  4. I have no critical values in our blood bank. Although if we have a positive DAT on a baby we call it, and we call the floors to update them if we have antibodies.

  8. Hey Malcolm, I especially like the bottom right quadrant that says "Date Bled". We really need the phenotypes included on the unit face label.

    They are AO's, then I am sure that they are still working. Why is your upper management trying to mess with a good thing?

  15. Normally if I request items, they are specific items and just request them to be available AT the time of inspection. When we did our virtual inspections, we requested digital copies.

  19. We used to include a type and screen in our Rhogam workups, but about 15 years ago we opted to just provide the fetal screen. There is no requirement to provide a screen at that time.

  22. I have one and if I am not mistaken, it recommends against DI water, so we use tap water and change it weekly as suggested by the manufacturer.
  23. we treat PEG as another enhancement, so no difference in charges
  24. I have not used glass pipettes in quite a few years, ever since the powers that be determined that they were unsafe. We use the Cardinal pipettes now.
  25. yes, here in the DFW area, it only takes approximately 10 minutes or so for the internal core temp of the unit to exceed 10C. new nurses as well as old ones are still under the fallacy of the "30 minute" rule.

  29. Although we are technically not a pediatric transfusion service, other than NICU patients, we have recently received pediatric trauma patients that could have needed blood. Would anyone be willing to share their processes and policies for pediatric MTP's? thanks. Scott
  30. As part of result, we indicate whether the patient has ever had a reaction that we know of.
  31. sounds like fraudulent documentation
  32. We, the blood bank, generates the confirmation types depending on previous history, the units have NO say in the matter. If it is determined that the patient does not have a history, a confirmation order is generated by the LIS, A phlebotomist then goes to the floor and collects another specimen.
