[Hours for blood product hold?]

Hi, 

Can anyone share with me their practice? We hold crossmatched blood products for 48 hours then we cancel it and request another fresh sample in order to prepare it again if neccessay. The question is.... can someone out there hold it only for 24 hrs? how is the experience?Where can we find the regulation if any?

Thanks,

I appreciate any help!  Thank you!

[Rh Interpretation]

Hi,

Here we have Meditech c/s 5.65 (Gel and Tube Method) and we do the weak D and the system distinguish between a RH Pos and a RH Pos Weak D.

May i ask ... do you give to these patients RH Pos or RH Neg RBC?

In our facility we give to them RhNeg RBC.

Thanks for the information,
