[Procedure for crossmatching patients with anti-Bg?]

We do an AHG crossmatch (either by Echo or gel) only when the current antibody screen is positive. If the patient has a negative antibody screen, even if there's history of anti-Bg, we do an electronic crossmatch.

[Echo interface]

We have 5 Echoes interfaced to BBCS. There were multiple problems developing the interface because we were the first facillity to use the interface. But, for the past few months, the interface has worked well - no results transferred incorrectly. Group, Screen, and DAT are interfaced.
