Forms

As soon as a patient is identified as requiring SPECIAL BLOOD COMPONENTS (e.g. irradiated, CMV negative, HEV negative, washed, HLA matched, allogeneic bone marrow transplant)  the Blood Transfusion laboratory must be informed. A notification letter should be raised on EPIC in the ward navigator page (click here to access more information on how to raise a special requirements notification on EPIC), this will link the requirement automatically to subsequent blood component orders and send the notification through to the Hospital Transfusion Team. If your blood component order is urgent you can add the special requirement to the component order but you will need to phone the laboratory on ext 2465/2467 to inform them of the requirement. If you do not have access to EPIC you can download and send a notification letter to the Blood Transfusion department or email to rduh-tr.HTT@nhs.net.

The blood component/product form in the link below should only be used to collect blood components/products if the electronic blood tracking system is not functioning
