We are a CAP accredited lab and 2x year we compare all our testing methods. We compare gel, LISS, PEG, saline techniques. All methods have detected all clinically significant antibodies. R1R2 -
Hi all, Does anyone know of a HIS or LIS or combo that allows patient attributes, such as irradiated or CMV negative, file directly into the LIS Blood Bank administrative file (i.e. no manual entry by the BB)? Thanks in advance.

This seems inappropriate. Is the patient trained in proper phlebotomy practices and aware of the risk of incompatible blood before initialing the tube?

Hi everyone, If your coolers are validated to keep temp at 1-6 C why put a Safe-T-Vue 6 on them? I think a wiser choice would to put a Safe-T-Vue 10 on the units. A color change of Safe-T-Vue 10s will occur if units are removed from the validated storage cooler by the patient care area and then replaced some time later. The use of Safe-T-Vue 10s on units stored in validated 1-6 C coolers will alert the blood banker to units that are unacceptable for reissue when returned. Regards, R1R2

In BBT forums I have read several posts regarding ruling in and out policies, such as 1 homozygous or 1 homozygous and 2 heterzygous. Has anyone based their rules on published studies? Does anyone know of any published studies in which ruliing out methods were compared?
