27 February 2025 (Thursday) - BTLP-TACT Exercise

 Yet another email from the people at BTLP-TACT saying

even though my manager assures me she has done no such thing. So I logged on and had a look.

Again I’m in the green for everything. But as I was logged in anyway I did another exercise. I was presented with one case – a seventy-five year-old woman in A&E with a fractured femur requiring group and save.
She grouped as O Rh(D) Positive with an antibody screen positive in cells 1 and 2. I requested antibody panels.
The IAT panel was positive in cells 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9 corresponding with anti-S, but not excluding anti-E or anti Lu(a). But the enzyme panel was negative, so that did exclude them. In this world…
I got the thumbs up. Should I have done? Bearing in mind this was *exactly* the same case as I had been given eleven days ago I just copied the answer from last time.
 
This BTLP-TACT is such a good idea in theory. In practice it is a work in progress that simply isn’t progressing very much…
I’ve got time on my hands. I’m a dab hand with computers… I wonder if I might be able to help them?
