Hi Paul, Magic 5.5 introduces the TAR (Transfusion Administration Record) in the NUR module. As part of this, there is a column available for the NUR Status Board that displays a Green "Ready" flag whenever a unit of blood is crossmatched. Once issued from the BBK, the flag changes to "Issued". If using the TAR to document the transfusion, the flag becomes "Trans" for Transfusing once documented as started. You can even display the next due vital sign time... but we have some issues with this as it is based on the time the last vitals were taken... not when they are due!
Hope this helps, Kenny Whiteside >>> "Paul Goedicke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 06/15/07 9:32 AM >>> I normally don't work with the NUR module, but for those sites with BBK also - after patient type & screen results are flagged as new results on the Status Board, is there a way to indicate on the Status Board that crossmatched units are ready for transfusion? We just went LIVE with BBK this week and do not have all the NUR-BBK link functionality set up yet. If we can't make crossmatched units ready for transfusion appear as new results, I'll probably look at clinical notifications to send a printout to the floor if I can't get Lab staff to print a crossmatch card to the floor.
