It has been used to detect errors related to wrong blood in tube (WBIT) events and reduce the risk of ABO\u2010incompatible transfusions. To prevent the clinical team from collecting the group check sample at the same time as the first sample, a tan top tube only available from the blood bank was introduced for second blood group determinations if drawn within 24\u2009h of the first group and screen.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study design and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This is a retrospective study analyzing data from 2005 to 2020 before and after the implementation of the blood bank supplied tan top tube for group check. The number of WBIT events, transfusion delays, and health care costs were determined.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The number of WBIT events remained unchanged throughout the time period. No delays in transfusion or procedure were reported due to the tan top tube group check. There was no increase in group O transfusions over time. In comparison to using an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) tube, the tan top tube was estimated to add an extra yearly cost of $790.79 Canadian dollars.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Second blood group determination using the blood bank supplied tan top tube did not increase the number of WBIT events detected but ensured an independent sample draw. A minimal incremental cost of implementing the tan top tube was noted with no delay in transfusions or procedures.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/trf.16838","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,25]],"date-time":"2022-02-25T22:22:24Z","timestamp":1645827744000},"page":"784-790","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Implementation of a blood bank generated tube for second blood group determination: Challenges, yield, and cost"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"62","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2846-1610","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Noora","family":"Obaidallah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine University of Toronto  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Helen","family":"Downie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Transfusion Medicine and Tissue Bank Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Connie","family":"Colavecchia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Transfusion Medicine and Tissue Bank Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6133-0677","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jeannie","family":"Callum","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology University of Toronto  Toronto Ontario Canada"},{"name":"University of Toronto Quality in Utilization, Education and Safety in Transfusion (QUEST) Research Program  Toronto Ontario Canada"},{"name":"Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine Kingston Health Sciences Centre and Queen's University  Kingston Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5562-9020","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yulia","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Transfusion Medicine and Tissue Bank Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre  Toronto Ontario Canada"},{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology University of Toronto  Toronto Ontario Canada"},{"name":"University of Toronto Quality in Utilization, Education and Safety in Transfusion (QUEST) Research Program  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjh.13137"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjh.12547"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/trf.14608"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5858\/arpa.2016-0167-CP"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1537-2995.2009.02157.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/trf.15102"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","first-page":"47","article-title":"Prevention of ABO\u2010incompatible transfusion","volume":"60","author":"Fujii Y","year":"2011","journal-title":"Masui Jpn J Anesthesiol"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","volume-title":"CAN\/CSA\u2010Z902:20 \u2010 blood and blood components","author":"CSA Group","year":"2020"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","volume-title":"Standards for blood banks and transfusion services","author":"American Association of Blood Banks","year":"2020"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vox.12492"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","volume-title":"Transfusion error surveillance system (TESS): user's manual.
