    Default Autologous Blood Labeling

    Does a unit of autologous red blood cells need to have an adhered label with the recipient information or can the information be simply attached; such as a tie tag?

    Default Our blood center uses a red tie tag for Autologous and Green for Directed. Tie tags are fine

    Our blood center also uses a tie tag for the actual donor/patient information.

    ...ditto here...tie tags.
    If you use an adhesive label...be sure the adhesive is FDA approved for placement on a blood bag.
