Resulting A-subgroup blood type in LIS

[rcracer09]

How are folks resulting a patient whose blood type results indicate an A subgroup in their LIS system?

[jill]

We result the type as A Pos and enter an internal blood bank comment that states patient is an A subgroup.

The A1 Negative type is resulted into the LIS. If Anti-A1 is present an internal comment is placed stating how

this antibody is reacting. If it reacts at 37C or AHG then grp O blood is x-matched.

Do your users receive a warning prompt that the results entered does not match the blood type "A pos";however,

your users can override the message and enter the blood type along with the results comment?

Yes. If Anti-A1 is rescting at IS macro the ABO reverse type when entered will require a user override.

The overried is entered and the blood type A+ is entered along with internal blood bank comments.
