Hello Eva,

The thawed codes for E1624 are listed below. I have included the codes for products with a 24 hour expiration and 5 day expiration, in case you need both. You can use the ISBT 128 Product Lookup Web Application to look up the full descriptions.

• 24 hour expiration: E2284
• 5 day expiration: E2121

The division codes (A0, B0, C0, etc.) would also use the same 5-character thawed Product Description Codes. I also wanted to clarify that the second character of the division code is a “0” (zero), and not the uppercase letter “O”. Section 5 in the Implementation Guide: Use of Product Code [Data Structure 003] - Blood (IG-021) document further discusses division codes. (Please note, you will need to be logged in to view the document).

I hope this helps, Eva! Please let me know if you would like some more help with finding additional codes.

Kind Regards,
