I was wondering if anyone out there would be willing to share their transfusion medicine specimen rejection rate and what system is used for collection, for example, typenex, electronic, hospital bands, etc.? We use typenex bands with an accompany ID form and we average 3% rejection.
We have been working with the Quality department in reducing the rejection rate, but there I am unable to find any published data on the average rate. We are in the forever, Nursing versus Lab debate in this project.
Thanks!
