Good afternoon L,
We have been waiting for guidance from the ARC and have not yet begun our
ISBT 128 conversion project. However, we need to have our implementation
plan written by November (per AABB). Does anyone have an implementation plan
they are willing to share?
Does anyone have answers to the questions that I previously posted to the L
last August? (see below)
I am interested in hearing from other users regarding your implementation
process for ISBT 128 in blood bank. What dictionary changes are necessary
for receiving the ISBT barcoded products from suppliers? And what are you
doing to produce ISBT barcodes for your pools and aliquots? We currently do
not barcode our pools/aliquots; we only assign a unique number from a
pre-printed roll of labels.
Thanks in advance!

Please post to L
We are Magic 5.5:
1. In LIS Label Format you would need to create a new mnemonic (i.e.
BBUNIT). From dropdown box of Copy Label Format, select "c.UNIT.b128".
Then you could change the look of the label the way you want.
2. On page 3 of Custom Defined Parameter attach the 'BBUNIT' to "Bar
Code" under "BBK Unit Label Format" heading.
3. Aliquot a Crossmatched unit for a patient. Answer yes to 'Increase
the product and order count".
4. Select "print Unit Labels". The label format should default to
"BBUNIT".
I believe the label size is 3 1/2" by 3" so you would need separate
label printer just for that. This would work the same way with pooled
products.
There is a DTS # 13937. You would need to request that since even though
the barcodes print on unit labels, the scanner would not recognize them.
This DTS will fix that. We are in the process of doing that.
Hope this help answer some of your questions.

Marlene and Fariborz,
I also had a question regarding ISBT 128 and aliquots, according to the
labeling standards for ISBT 128 that when you aliquot a product the unit
number should not change, the product "division" would change. I do not
know how this would work in Meditech's current aliquot set up since
today when you aliquot it adds a letter to the unit number. In the ISBT
128 standard it seems that you would need to make this a different
product . What are you hospitals doing? Do they plan on making
aliquots the same way or would you add more products and make the
"aliquot" division a component product?
Any info on how your hospital plan on handling this would be greatly
appreciated.
Michelle
