AABB Lists All Active Association Bulletins

April 19, 2024

AABB released Association Bulletin #24-01 on Friday, which contains all active Association bulletins for member access. During this revision cycle, several Association bulletins were made obsolete and  remain viewable online.

In the past, AABB has tasked the Transfusion Medicine Subsection Coordinating Committee (TMSCC) with reviewing all active Association bulletins (bulletins) and determining whether a bulletin would remain active, be obsolesced or edited, where appropriate.

Changes to bulletins are triggered by several factors, including the advancement of science, changes in regulatory requirements or changes in standards and accreditation requirements. The TMSCC feels that these edits strengthen the bulletins that remain current on the AABB website. The inclusion of the most up to date information will benefit all AABB members who rely on the bulletins as a part of their daily routines.

To better assist AABB members in determining what content has been revised, where appropriate, the TMSCC will present two versions of the revised bulletins: one version that contains tracked and highlighted changes and one that incorporates the changes into the bulletin’s original language. The TMSCC marked all revised bulletins with a revision date of April 2024. Previously revised bulletins are indicated with the date of their revision.

Individuals with questions regarding the updated bulletins or the process by which they were updated should contact the TMSCC at standards@aabb.org.
