Posted June 5, 20214 yr comment_82103 Can anyone shed some light... How long do we need to save the following: I am saying 2 years - not 10 for Blood Bank records. (not patient test results) Manual Paper Pick up slips : Blood Products / Rhogam : 2 years - do we need to save?? Blood Inventory and Orders to Blood Center : Need to save? Shipping documents to Blood Center / Transfer Order to Blood Center : Need to save?
June 7, 20214 yr comment_82106 I've never saved pickup slips more than a day (have not used one in years). Inventory and blood orders to blood center: never saved Shipping documents/transfers: 10 yrs
June 7, 20214 yr comment_82107 I agree with David. Pick-up slips information and blood orders are all electronic and maintained in the LIS or the donor centers order website. CAP requires 10 years for blood and inventory inspection records, which includes shipping documents, since they usually contain a message about shipping, storage, and inspection.
