I am currently building for 6x to go live Oct. 1.  The electronic xm seems to work great when there are two types, no antibody history and negative current screen.  Have not tried the emergency issue "issue" from 5.66 I have been reading about to see if this is fixed.  My problem is, I cannot get a full crossmatch to invoke once a electronic xm does not apply.  The fix is to go the BBK history desktop  ----> replace XM test--> and add a full xm to the crossmatch test map, so every future specimen for that patient will get a full crossmatch due to antibody history.  There has to be an easier way!!  Does anybody have an easier way??

I use a single profile test that contains two resultable tests for immediate-spin and anti-IgG crossmatches.  If patient qualifies for electronic crossmatch, Meditech 'NP's both tests and interprets the crossmatch as compatible.  If patient does not qualify for electronic crossmatch, both tests are available for serological test result entry.  I've never used the 'replace XM test' function.

We do it the same way as Dansket.

Same thing here.
