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.

To perform the test you need a drop of water (distilled, filtered or water for injection).

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 one transparent adhesive foil once it is dry.

Do not open the zipper of the Eldon bag below 18°C.

Eldon card that have been out if their bag for more than 30 minutes should be used that same working day.
