The 1988 comprehensive blood bank survey of the college of American pathologists
1990
: An average of 2211 laboratories reported results in this comprehensive blood bank survey. In general, the participant performance remains strong in ABO and D typing, unexpected antibody detection and identification, crossmatching, and antigen identification. However, certain samples achieved less than the usual performance levels. In one sample, anti-C, which was not present, was reported by many participants. In a third sample, only 90% of the participants correctly recorded that no antibody was detectable. Two cross-match challenges did not reach the required participant consensus for grading purposes. The ungraded samples and the supplementary questions provide mock clinical situations and are used to determine current practices and procedures in transfusion medicine. The results of these studies and the participant responses are included.
