Are there any standards regarding having o-neg blood available in the ED.
Should a level I center have it in a refrigerator in the ED? Is it any
different at a Peds trauma center verses an adult? Immediately available is
the intent but is it acceptable to have it kept in the blood bank with a 7-10
minute response time from the patients arrival in the ED.
I would be interested in any feed back in how it works at your center.
