On September 30, 2019, FDA released their &quot;Final Guidance&quot; with multiple recommendations that can appear confusing at first glance. This interview with Dr. Pat Kopko from UC-San Diego is designed to be a &quot;first impression&quot; tour through the options in the guidance. NOTE: Every facility should form their own impressions and determine their individual best course. I highly recommend focused conversations between blood suppliers and transfusion services to decide what is best in YOUR setting!
