Question 5
If you have any plasma protein products that will
be expiring in the next 6 months and it is unlikely
that there will be a user, who should you notify?
Wrong Answer!
•
Plasma Protein products that need to be redistributed
should be passed on to ORBCoN or FCRP to ensure

able to use the product.
•
Also it is important to keep track of how much product
is being redistributed as this is reported back to the
Ministry of Health every year.

Question 7
What form should be sent with any redistributed
components or products
Wrong Answer!
•
All redistributed components or products should be
shipped with a completed Inter-hospital Redistribution
Form, and for those sites that use LIS batch transfer
lists, these are attached to the form and indicated in

•
You do not have to transcribe all the units/Lot #s from
the LIS transfer list unless the numbers do not match
the numbers found on the unit or product. They have
to match

Question 8
What shipping container should be used for
shipping RBCs to another facility for
redistribution or transfer with patient?
Wrong Answer!
•
Shipping any RBCs should be packed in a J82

validation.
Correct!
•
Shipping any RBCs should be packed in a J82
shipping container.
•
This container has been validated to maintain the
acceptable temperature for RBCs for up to 18
hours when shipped in warm ambient temperatures
and ice packs and gel packs are pre-conditioned
according to the ORBCoN/FCRP validation.
•
Some sites can use the Credo Cube EMT
containers (formerly called MTS Golden Hour)
these have been validated to maintain
temperatures for 24 hours

Question 9
What is the recommended pre-conditioning
requirements of the ice packs and gel packs
used to ship components in a J82 shipping
container?
Wrong Answer!
•
ORBCoN and FCRP have validated the J82 shipping
container based on pre-conditioning of the ice packs
between -25C and -40C, as most hospitals have
access to freezers that are in that temperature range.
Any ice packs that are pre-conditioned outside of this
temperature range will need it’s own validation and
these results must be made available to any site
requesting it if products are shipped to them using a
different temperature range.
Correct!
