wearly0510 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 In the last few months I have received multiple phone calls at home about resolving antibodies that have came across as ? marks on the ECHO. I am telling techs that the ECHO is sensitive and can give false positives. Does anyone have any resources, flow charts, or anything of the sort that would explain step by step what to do in this type of situation? Thanks!!

Rapundaa Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Do not discount ? reactions. We have subsequently identified antibodies from these reactions (D, C, Jka). Anyone who reacts with a ? on the screen gets a repeat screen and a full panel. Granted most of the time this does not lead to a cliically significant antibody but then when it does... And we are in this field to go above and beyond.We use NEO (Echos big brother) and used Galileos for a number of years before that. We are will aquainted with the desire to make those ? reactions go away. I will try to attach my flowchart in a few minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
