  1. I agree with all the above we have used O pos on all our massive transfusion patients and on any emergency release blood given to a male or female >50. We also use A FFP in any emergency release or massive transfusion patient. The only problems that we have run into as with any massive transfusion patient is how late we get the T/S and then the patient shows as an O pos and then after being in the hospital a while starts to show their true type. As far as antibodies, in an emergency situation there are risks, but death is what we are trying to prevent. We have not had very many patients that come back with antibodies and Anti-D isn't even usually the one made. More often than not it is a K or Duffy, possibly a Kidd.
  2. Thank you all so much for your greetings and help. I have gotten my coworker hooked as well because surprising or not surprising we are all newbies on our shift except for three and one of those is only a weekend worker. There are 14 of us.
  3. I am a newbie technologist only 4 years and bloodbanking for 2 years in a large hospital (trama 1). I fell into this career in which I love and now terrified my boss is reading this..... I ran into this website looking up a reference question in which two of my superiors do not agree on and of course it bothers me. SO this fantastic website comes up with intelligent blood bankers and I got distracted....my question is..is there a genetic link between C and Cw. I always thought that Cw caused a weaker expression of C and now I'm told this is no longer thought to be true? Sorry that's barely an introduction..I'm Jen by the way
