tcoyle, how do you rotate it?  Wait till it has only 2 days left then bring it back to the Blood Bank and thaw 2 more?  or whenever you have someone in house that could use it and you could extend the dating by thawing new units for the helipad fridge? Does your night shift swap it out if they need it or only day shift?

The lab will check the helipad refrigerator each shift and restock as needed, or if contacted.  The TP is brought back to the lab when it has ~24 hours of life left.  We are a pretty busy place, so using that product isn't really an issue.  We also keep TP (usually A's and O's) on hand so we having it ready to stock, again isn't an issue.
