platelet xmatch?!?


Recommended Posts

Hello!

Is anyone doing a platelet xmatch with Galileo(immucor)?

How long can we use the platelets in a tube or bag for testing? As long as the "swirling" is still there an the QC is ok? Or do the platelets "expire" for testing after a couple of hours? We recently had a pt. with transfusion reaction, so we had to test/"xmatch" pt. an platelets in MAIPA- xmatch with "Leo" would be sooo much faster if we have some active/swirling platelets, I think.

btw: Great site- thank you everyone out there!:)
