11 December 2025 (Thursday) - BTLP-TACT Exercise

Having had another email about how I’m not doing enough BTLP-TACT exercises, I suppose I ought to do one…
 
I was presented with two cases:

18493 – a seventy-two year-old chap who is tired all the time who needs a group and save.  

He grouped as O Rh(D) Positive with a negative antibody screen.

08556 – an eighty-four year-old chap in A&E needing four units of blood for a GI bleed. 

He also grouped as O Rh(D) Positive but with antibody screen positive in cell 2. I performed antibody panels. The IAT and enzyme panels were positive in cells 3 and 5 corresponding with anti-E.

I issued four units of O Rh(D) Positive E-negative blood.

 
I got it right…
