Last week
I whinged about having a “no win scenario” on the BTLP-TACT. But I didn’t
whinge here; I also whinged at the scheme’s organizer who said that “Under
those circumstances, issuing a single unit would result in a correct mark”.
I shall
add that snippet to the other vagaries of the system that I have picked up
along the way.
So… in
order to get the green light I must bear in mind that in the simulator
- A control failure invalidates the entire group; not just the Rh group.
- Rh antibodies work by both IAT and enzyme.
- Lu(a) works by both IAT and enzyme. If negative in enzyme then anti-Lu(a) is not there.
- If I’m unable to provide the correct amount of suitable blood (given antibody issues) I should issue what I can.
It is such
a shame that the simulator can’t be brought in line with what happens in
reality…
