17/10/2018 at 3:47 pm in reply to: Patient consent post anaesthetic for Body Bluid Exposure Bloods #74858
Hi ,
We have it included in the consent pre-operatively for all patients. We again get their verbal consent prior to taking blood as they have the right to withdraw consent at any time. Hope this helps ?
P.S We are in the process of re-branding that is why the different logos etc !

Afternoon Brains Trust,
I am trying to update our Body Fluid Exposure consent process for patients.
If the patient has not consented to the collection of Hep B, C & HIV prior to surgery, I was lead to believe that we had to wait 24 hrs post an anaesthetic for the consent to be valid, however I do not have any written evidence to back this up. I have also been told today that this is no longer correct.
Are you able to direct me or provide any assistance with the correct information in relation to this.
Many thanks for any assistance you can provide
Regards
Sara
