17 June 2025 (Tuesday) - BTLP-TACT Exercise

Time for another BTLP-TACT exercise. I was presented with two cases
 

98137 – a thirty-one year-old woman in outpatients with “maternal alloantibody” requiring group and save

She grouped as A Rh(D) Positive with a negative antibody screen. Bearing in mind the diagnosis of “maternal alloantibody” this might warrant further investigation to find just how long ago this “maternal alloantibody” was identified. 

47220 – a nineteen year old woman in theatre requiring group and save.

Her ABO group was indeterminate; cell group A, reverse group AB. But the Rh group was negative. This should be referred to NHSBT, but given that she was having a baby this would probably be a known case.

The antibody screen was negative. 

I got it right.
