KGT Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Hello everyone I have a question about labeling pooled products. Does anyone know if the pooled ABO codes (i.e. A0, B0, C0, D0, E0, F0, G0, H0) are the only blood type codes that are permitted to be used with pooled product codes? For example could you label a pooled product E3833 with a standard blood type of AP (code- 62)?Any help would be appreciated.Thank You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHarts Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 If all units are the SAME blood type, you can label with same ABO/Rh. Example: Pooling of 4 A POS platelets, use A POS to label pooled product. The ABO/Rh pooled barcodes are available when units of different ABO and/or different Rh types are pooled. Using one of these "pooled" codes replaces using a separate barcode label for each blood group contained in the pool. Please be aware that the barcode H0 (Pooled ABO, Rh not specified) is only used for Cryoprecipitate. The Intended use for pooled ABO/Rh barcodes is "not specified."
