25 November 2025 (Tuesday) - BTLP-TACT Exercise

Time for another BTLP-TACT exercise. 

I had one case – a sixty-four year-old woman needing group and save.

She grouped as A Rh(D) Positive with a negative antibody screen. 

I got it right…  so flushed with success I tried again. This time I was presented with a fifty-year-old chap needing two units of blood for TURP. He too grouped as A Rh(D) Positive but with an antibody screen positive in cell 2.

I performed antibody panels.

The enzyme and IAT panels were positive in cells 2 and 6 corresponding with anti-K.

I selected two units of A Rh(D) Positive K-negative blood.

I got that right too.

 
Whilst I was logged in I had a look at the performance dashboard. I am currently at over double the rate of performance it thinks I should be… I wonder how long it will be before I get another email telling me I’m not doing enough.
