Mabel Adams Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 If the patient has been transfused in recent months did you do an elution? Did the DAT look "mixed field" at all in the gel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aafrin Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 No Mabel, the DAT did not show mixed-field reaction any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galvania Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 A negative patient control is an excellent idea. If you do not have the cards to differentiate between IgG and C3 with the control do you run your types in gel? The type cards I have experience with have a control for the front type (for those pesky AB pos samples). This would be essential the same as the DAT control. Patient cells and gel with no "reagent".Except the gel formula is not the same............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
