Starting <b><span>May 19th<\/span><\/b> , the blood bank computer system will be set-up to require the second check-type sample.  When TMS receives a type and screen (T&#038;S) sample with a Prepare RBC request (or patient has an active T&#038;S and TMS gets an order for Prepare RBC), TMS will immediately check for a previous ABO type on the patient. If there is NOT a previous type, TMS staff will call the floor or clinic with the patient and ask for another pink top tube with an order for a blood type only. While the second sample is being drawn, TMS will begin the T&#038;S on the first sample. Once the second sample is in TMS, an ABO type only, which takes approximately 5 minutes to complete, will be performed and if types match, the units will be ready after the screen is complete on the first sample.  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; \"><span style=\"color: black; \"><span><br \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; \"><span style=\"color: black; \"><span>***  <\/span><b><span><span>If your patient requires a second sample, there will be a comment listed in the results section under the patient\u2019s blood type stating \u201c2<\/span><sup><span>nd<\/span><\/sup><span> sample is required for ABORH confirmation\u201d.
