[MT-L] TAR comments - HUB Fail Queue
Maria Clause
The issue is that if you have ONE lab specimen off of which Multiple Products are issued (example: Mutliple units of platelets + plasma + rbc's), all of the documentation in the TAR, including vitals signs etc go across to LAB BBK as "comments" and the large "size" of the comments cause it to hit the fail queue because they are too large to process through.
Is this happening to anyone else?
MT is working on a DTS to resolve, but in the meantime have suggested "splitting" the specimen to decrease the size by spreading it across specimens, which we do not think is appropriate to do.
Any ideas?

Is anyone else having the same issue we are with TAR documentation getting stuck in the HUB fail queue?

Part of having a safe transfusion service is maintaining specimen collection information and ID. Introducing new requisitions for the same specimen is crazy.
Can you tell us how many products it takes to cause this 'melt-down'?
8-10..., 20-30...? 50+?
And is it just the number of products or a variety of products?
What happens when the HUB queue fails?
(Is this Magic or Client Server?)
We are not using TAR yet, but are trying to work in that direction.
Thanks,

We are 5.64PP21. The biggest issue we see is the that when the staff do
the verify and have their co signer do their user name and pin....it
doesn't get filed. Then they can't do anything. The other issue we see,
but not as frequently is that our labs cutoff time for units is 6 hours.
The lab auto completes. If staff have not done their documentation
(because what is "Point of Care").....then they can't document on the
blood.
I'm not sure if we have had a pt with all of the BBK products ordered
but I have seen both RBCs and Platelets ordered on the same specimen
without problems in TAR. I did have an email conversation with our BBK
director and she has not heard of it either.
