Instructions for use

The ultimate pretransfusional control card allows preventing ABO incompatibility accidents resulting from blood unit or patient misidentification.

The control must be performed at the patient's bedside immediately prior to transfusion by the nurse or the medical doctor who performs the transfusion.

The ABO group of the recipient is verified from a capillary blood sample, and the one of the blood unit from a tubing segment.

This test is not a substitute for patient and donor ABO Rh D blood grouping or laboratory "cross-matching" test.

Keep the card in the patient's medical file after covering it with a transparent adhesive foil once it is dry.

Storage

  • Store between 2 and 25ºC
  • Do not freeze
  • Shelf life: 2 years
  • Guaranteed minimum remaining shelf life at delivery: 1/3 of the total shelf life
  • Not to be used beyond expiry date
