Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Three EBA specified blood bag configurations ('Eurobloodpack') are described which are capable of meeting >80% of its member's requirements. These include a 'top-and-top' and two 'bottom-and-top' packs enabling aseptic, pre-donation collection of up to 40 ml of samples, 427·5-522·5 ml of whole blood and the preparation of an extensive range of blood components. Features currently beyond the scope of ISO standardisation have been controlled including: anticoagulant and additive volumes; collection needle and sampling system; transfer tubing; cross-match line; base label; leucodepletion filter performance; compatibility of access ports and transfusion sets. Eurobloodpack has significant advantages for blood services and blood bag manufacturers.
