After last
week’s debacle I had a word with the boss who agreed with me that the BTLP-TACT
simulator is far from perfect… but it is the only simulator we’ve got.
So I had
another go…
I had two
cases:
41003 – a sixty-three
year-old woman requiring group & save for a hernia repair.
She
grouped as O Rh(D) Positive with a negative antibody screen.
02386 – a forty-six
year-old chap in A&E requiring six units of blood within the hour following
a stabbing.
His ABO
blood group was indeterminate; cells grouping as A; plasma as AB. But the Rh
group was negative. I called him indeterminate Rh(D) Negative.
The
antibody screen was negative.
I issued
six units of O Rh(D) Negative blood.
I got it
right… for which I was grateful…
