RESUMEN
【Objective】 To explore the significance of automatic transfer of diversion pouches in blood transfusion departments on improving the standardization of quality management. 【Methods】 A total of 16 548 diversion pouches of suspended red blood cells (sRBC) were collected from Blood Transfusion Departments of ten tertiary hospitals in China. The sRBC was supplied by local blood centers from January to March 2021. The diversion pouches were randomly divided into experimental group (n=8 274, using DS-6800A automatic for transferring) and control group (n=8 274, manual transfer). The transfer duration of diversion pouches labels, whole process operation time of diversion pouches, label accuracy after transferring, table cleanliness and accurate transfer rate of diversion pouches of the two groups were recorded and compared. 【Results】 The results of experimental group and control group were as follows: transfer duration(s) of diversion pouch labels was 0.67±0.3 vs 3.67±0.6(P<0.05); whole process operation time was 16.93±0.5 vs 19.85±1 (P<0.05); label accuracy after transferring was 100% (8 274/8 274) vs 97.91% (8 101/8 274); table cleanliness was 99.19% (8 207/8 274) vs 94.39% (7 810/8 274); transfer accuracy was 100%(8 274/8 274) vs 95.85% (7 931/8 274). 【Conclusion】 Automatic transfer of diversion pouches of blood samples can improve the efficiency and quality of the sample transfer, and is conductive to the standardization of internal quality evaluation and control of blood transfusion departments.
