spavlis Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 (edited) I'm in the process of updating our lookback policies and I'm having trouble determining what infectious disease markers actually REQUIRE (per FDA regulations) a lookback. So far, I have HIV, HCV and Zika. What WNV, HTLV or HBV??? Does anyone know if these are REQUIRED look-backs?? Thanks Stephanie Edited October 28, 2016 by spavlis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 We did a lot of work developing the attached charts. It does not include ZIKA, we are modifying it now for that. This is a small excerpt from a long SOP. 696.docx AMcCord, Texas Lynn and dragonlady97213 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnapplec Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 At our work when donors test positive for any other test other than HBC core there is some sort of look back required. If a donor has in date products to retrieve that piece is still performed but follow up investigation on the transfusion facility side is not required at our blood center for HepB core only. All other tests I assume do. There are other exceptions and time frames depending on other tests like HTLV or WNV etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
