A crossmatch is known by this term.
What is a compatibility test?
When blood components are ordered all of the following are true EXCEPT:
a. name of the physician placing order must be indicated.
b. order should be placed with sufficient time to complete testing.
c. requests must include number and type of components.
d. Request must be made using a written request form.
What is a written request form?
In the event that a patients ABO can not be determined in accordance with facility SOP, this is the type of blood to be give until resolution.
What is O?
Antibody screening performed as part of recipient compatibility testing is used to detect this.
unexpected RBC alloantibodies.
The immediate spin or abbreviated crossmatch is an acceptable procedure when these conditions are met.
What is no prior or existing clinically significant antibodies?
A patient that types as Rh (D) negative will receive this type of blood in most instances. Name an exception as well as the unit type.
What is D negative and massive transfusion with insufficient neg blood in inventory?
Males to receive Rh positive if necessary.
Name three methods of routine transfusion medicine testing.
What is gel, solid phase and tube testing?
These are the four parts to a type and screen.
What is ABO (forward and reverse), Rh (D) and IAT.
There are specific requirements for the labeling of a blood bank specimen.
What is labeling at the patient bedside with two selective identifiers?
Preferably the full patient name and a specific personal identification number ( DO, SS, BB band number, pt ID #).
This is the minimum storage time for the specimen used for crossmatch and transfusion.
What is 7 days?
This type of crossmatch is performed when the patient has a positive Ab screen and/or a history of clinically significant Abs.
What is IAT crossmatch?
This is the definition of issuance of uncrossedmatched RBC blood product.
What is some or all of the required testing has not been completed?
ABO, D, IAT, XM.
There are two testing requirements for testing before giving Fresh Frozen plasma.
What is patient type and Rh (D)?
A type B patient was crossmatched with group O RBC. This specific phase of the Crossmatching procedure can identify an ABO incompatibility.
What is immediate spin?
This B patient with an O unit is compatible so IS would show no agglutination.
Patient RBC antigen testing is normally done at this time.
What is confirmation of alloantibody in a positive IAT with negative autocontrol?
This type of crossmatch can performed when there is a negative indirect Ab Test and no history of previous transfusions.
What is a computer generated crossmatch?
This is required for release of uncrossed matched RBC product to give.
What is a physician's signature?
According to statistics, the majority of transfusion reactions that occur are due to this.
What are errors in sample or patient identification?
The patient is O positive and crossmatched with 6 units RBC. The IAT screening cells I, II, III are positive and two of the six units agglutinate at AHG phase agglutinate most likely due to what?
What is recipient alloantibody?
The type & screen on a 32 yr old female indicates she is AB negative and needs two unit transfusion. The inventory contains no AB neg units. This is what should be done.
What is check inventory and use RBC packed cells that are A neg, then B neg, then O neg?
The procedure for a DAT positive donor unit and donor.
What is quarantine unit and monitor donor for auto immune hemolytic anemia (cold or warm antibody), drug induced positive DAT, SLE or some malignancies?
The procedure for a cord blood with a positive DAT.
What is identify the attached Ab and confirm the mother is Ag negative for Ab?
The type of antibody your patient has with a positive DAT using polyspecific & mono AHG , negative C3D.
What is autoantibody, IgG.
