Rashmi I absolutely agree with you back to basics are the best. And if we do not have any FDA regulation your answer will fit perfect- thank you for that comment .

hello all are there any written regulations for QC on blood group analyser ? I try to find something in the AABB Standards but I didn`t find anything - I need some help thanks
-
thanks a lot I am also interested in the UK guidelines

Davif thanks for your reply. Here in Germany we do the procedure as followed. ABO+ Screen from a patient. If the screen is negative and the patient needs a transfusion we make a x-match ( not electronic ) The x-matched donations are 72 hours valid. if the patient hasn`t get the x-matched donations within the 72 hours you have to match them again. But we use every time a new sample from the patient. Cornelia

thanks for the information Cornelia

Can somebody answer me a question please-, I am sure that the US has something similar to our guidelines in "blood and blood transfusion" here in Germany Where do I find these guidelines ? I am happy for every answer
-
Anna , thank`s for the information, are you located in the US ?? I read Fribourg that seems european to me ?!! Cornelia

hi just a question from my side - we do not perform the type and screen test here in Germany so I am not shure as I am right informed . Type and screen means you perform from a patient a ABO and an antibodysreen at the same time . If this patient will get 3 times a week a donation you`ll repeat this procedere 3 times- do I understand this correctly ?? thanks for your answers

blood-group.com is a new communication platform for the exchange of knowledge in transfusion medicine in Europe Feel free to visit the homepage we are online since 2 weeks- we also need your input and the exchange of experience from the US - it would be helpful to link the websites...

Hi Rashmi the TANGO use the microtiterplate technology with liquid screening cells not precoated as the capture method the specificity is better and here in Germany were I am from we have some studys if you are interested in I`ll send it to you regards Cornelia;)

hi, evryone just one question concerning emergency samples running on the Echo . If the machine is in a workprocess and you`ll run an emergency sample how long ( in worst case ) does it take until you`ll get the result of this sample? And what happend with the tests from the other patient did they get lost - in case of the interruption through the emergency sample thank you for the answers:whisper:
-
The transfusion of incompatible blood bags is not really acceptable you can transfuse blood with a positive Antibodyscreen from the patient without identification only if the results of the X/M are negative!!
-
I absolutely agree with you the system has to fit in your lab and your workflow.... by the way you talk about an article can you give me an idea were I can get this regards
-
the problem is if you spin a second time you change the method by itself and you get a result that you cannot validate..... but I think you have to look if the patient have autoantibodys it seems like you have to eluate and see what is on the surface of the ery`s
