The ICCBBA Learning Lab: The ISBT 128 Standard in Action is an interactive, hands-on workshop designed to introduce participants to the ISBT 128 Standard while deepening their understanding of its role in traceability and patient safety for medical products of human origin (MPHO). The session combines concise presentations, guided learning activities, role-play scenarios, and a panel Q&A with ICCBBA staff. Participants will gain both foundational understanding and practical implementation knowledge, including labeling blood and cellular therapy products, using barcodes and unique identifiers, and encoding red cell antigens.
Learning Objectives:
Understand the basic concepts behind the ISBT 128 Standard
Describe the significance of ISBT 128 implementation in MPHO traceability and patient safety
Identify the key components of ISBT 128 and its role in blood and cellular therapy labeling
Apply ISBT 128 standards to create properly formatted labels for blood and cellular therapy products
