15 July 2025 (Tuesday) - BTLP-TACT Exercise

Time for another BTLP-TACT exercise. I was presented with two cases:
 
79165 – a thirty-one year-old woman needing six units of blood following a stabbing. The date of birth on the sample was wildly different to that on the paperwork, so I rejected it. Despite the urgency of the case I’d rather operate without a blood sample than having one from the wrong patient.
 
20599 – a ninety-seven year-old chap needing two units of blood following burns.
He grouped as A Rh(D) Positive with a negative antibody screen. I selected two units of A Rh(D) Positive blood
 
I got the thumbs-up
