    Hello John, I tried to open your documents for validating the pneumatic tube for sending blood products, but was unable to. We are hoping to start using our Translogic CTS30 to transport blood products and would love to have the information. Would you be willing to send the attachments to me in an email? Hopefully I will have better luck trying to open them. Thanks very much. Gail Sharpe Transfusion Safety Officer Health Science Centre St. John's, Newfoundland Canada gail.sharpe@hccsj.nl.ca

    We transfuse Rh pos platelets to Rh neg patients often, however, our policy is to call the nursing unit (or doctor) and let them know when their patient needs Rh(D) Immune Globulin. We check on a daily basis and call when any Rh neg male or female, up to 50 years of age, requires Rh(D)IG after receiving pos platelets. We base this on: 300 microgram Rh(D)IG will suffice for either 30 units of single donor platelets (counting each platelet apheresis as 4 single donor units) OR up to one month from the last dose of Rh(D)IG.
