26 May 2021 (Wednesday) - BT NEQAS

 

I did the BT NEQAS a little while ago and got the result today... i got it right...

23 November 2020 (Monday) - DAT NEQAS

 

I got to do the DAT NEQAS back in September. I got the result today – I got it right. 

While I was pleased about that, why does it take so long to come back? Had I stuffed it up then clearly I would be doing something wrong and would need to revisit what I do on a day-to-day basis. And in the meantime I would have possibly made mistakes on two months’ worth of work on real patients.
I suppose that is unlikely – IQC would show that up… wouldn’t it?

23 November 2020 (Monday) - Rh Phenotypes

I got to do the Rh phenotyping NEQAS back in September. I got the result today – I got it right.

Rh phenotyping in a pain in the glass (as my grandson would say) - for me the tricky bit is getting the suspensions right. It’s effectively double the strength of any other suspension we prepare, but we then only use half the volume that we usually use.
So why not use the usual amount of a usual preparation?
