I have been out of bloodbank for more than 10 years. Thank you so much for this refresher course. Just a nice review of everything before starting a new job.
I actually came on youtube to find a video describing this exact item. THANK YOU! I am a Medical Laboratory Scientist intern and just beginning blood bank. I needed to understand how to better read these panels...you helped me do just that. I have subscribed and am off to check out your website. :) Thank you again for taking your time to share your knowledge!
Bro.... thank you so much i hate the short versions that do not tell me all i need to know i love the work you do and thanks for taking the time to help us .....
Hi! I am always intimidated in Blood Bank especially when dealing with multiple antibodies. I get paranoid!!! :-( Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Visual aids and explanations are awesome!
Thanks, this clarified a lot of questions for me. So grateful that you would take the time to put such a quality podcast on UA-cam. I will continue to be a fan while I finish my degree. I will also recommend these to others who are in school.
This video is amazing! I was thinking about M&N antibodies. I have read in my text book that these antibodies are clinically insignificant. I was wondering why are we ruling them out..... Is it because they have the ability to mask other clinically significant antibodies? The textbook went further to state that locating RBC donor units that are negative for the antigen corresponding to the cold antibody is not necessary. So why is it even on the antigram?
@bloodbankguy Is this right? Shouldn't be the other way around? Traditional Interpretation: @59:13 Ag present: 3 positive reactions Ag absent: 3 Negative reactions
I am a big fan of bbguy videos I love them all, make things easy to understand and remember them,, but I have a little note on this video in minute 8:17 the little window of the R's showed I think the r':dCE is wrong it should be r':dCe .. am I right??
Amazing videos thankyou!!! Just a quick clarification at timestamp 8:50 I think the r' is a typo as it doesn't match the table you went through in the overview video which say r' and R1 have the same Ce phenotype? Could you confirm?
Do pathology registrars in the US actually do the panels or are they just expected to know them? In Ireland the medical scientists do all the panels and I doubt the registrars know how to do them. I could be wrong though and apologies if I am.
Alan, I missed this question. My apologies. In the US, most of the panels are done by the medical lab scientists, yes. However, pathology residents are expected to know how to do them for standardized examinations, and it behooves physician specialists to understand them thoroughly so that they can help troubleshoot difficult cases. Thanks! Joe
Hi.. I tried it too. It still isn't working. Also, thanks so much for all of this podcast.. you're helping me so much to shape my future. 10 out of 10!
Please speak a bit slower..it is very interesting what you are explaining but for non native english speakers your explanations might. be cause of your speed, a bit difficult. Thanks a lot!
Hi, Bettina! I do sometimes speak rapidly, I know! I'm very excited about the topics, and I get carried away sometimes. My apologies for that, but I hope that you can understand it comes from a place of passion about my topic! -Joe
Hi Joe, thanks for responding. I can undetstand your passion..but please slow down a bit. I would like to follow and understand more than press often the repear button😤☺
I will pass my exams and will come back here to testify by God's grace thank you

Awww...Connie trained me there too!!! It's nice to refresh my memory with someone that has had the same trainer!
Your dosage lesson was so much better than what I received in school. Makes a great deal more sense now.
Great to hear! I'm so glad it helped.
-Joe
Thank you so much!!! I appreciate all the extra details and explanations!
Thanks! Very helpful, you've explained a lot better then my teacher 👌
Thanks a lot you saved my life. I was about to quit and then saw this video....A big THANKS Sir.
Sadly, Nada, you are correct (and the first one to point this out after the video has been up for over a year!). Thanks for noticing.
Joe

The bottom row is PC (patient cells) or know as the auto control. It is not reserved for the patient phenoytype.
@13:40 Cell 5 is *homozygous* for Jkb (not heterozygous)!
Yes, I know. I've commented about this error in the past (see the intro section where I point out my errors). Thanks!
-Joe
Thank you for the lecture Doc!
8:04 isn't r': dCe instead of dCE? (Since r_y is dCE)
Yes, if you look on the screen, you will see that I made a comment to that effect
Amazing videos thankyou!!! Just a quick clarification at timestamp 8:50 I think the r' is a typo as it doesn't match the table you went through in the overview video which say r' and R1 have the same Ce phenotype? Could you confirm?
Really helpfull presentation. Thanks alot.

Gosh he knows his stuff, but keeping up with taking notes from him is like playing the fiddle against the devil.
OK this one made me laugh... Yes, James, I talk pretty fast sometimes, you are 100% correct!
thanks for sharing, sir. appreciate it.
Great explanation! thank you very much! Learned a lot!!! :)
@ approx 8:10 - r' should be dCe
We can do this MLS majors
See my comment above (addressed in "Antibody ID: Basic Cases (Part 2)" at the 3:20 mark.
