Storage of Patient Specimens

[L106]

Whoops!! I made a mistake in my original post. As others have written, AABB Standards says we must keep the samples at least 7 days (not 10 days) after transfusion.

My weak mind automatically adds the 7 days to the 3 days and thinks in term of a "10 days" requirement. (Well, in my defense, at least the fact that I can add 7 and 3 and come up with the correct answer of "10" demonstrates that my basic math skills are OK, ya think?)
