Installation Instructions:
==========================
This patch may be loaded with users on the system.
Installation will take less than 5 minutes.
1) Use the INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE option on the PackMan menu to unload
the KIDS distribution included with this message.
2) From the Kernel Installation and Distribution System Menu,
select the Installation menu.
3) From this menu, you may elect to use the following options
(when prompted for the INSTALL NAME, enter VBEC*1.0*54).
a) Backup a Transport Global - this option will create a backup
message of any routines exported with the patch. It will NOT
backup any other changes such as DDs or templates.
b) Compare Transport Global to Current System - this option will
allow you to view all changes that will be made when the patch
is installed. It compares all components of the patch
(routines, DDs, templates, etc.).

with patient Type and Screen test results. This was not done by
the legacy blood bank system. The change made to the VBECA1B1
routine will eliminate Transfusion Reaction Workup test results
from the Blood Bank Report, Diagnostic Tests Section. Note - the
Transfusion Reactions Section of the CPRS Blood Bank Report does
not change and will still display Transfusion Reaction
Interpretations.
Associated Remedy Tickets: INC000000923654 and INC000000925197.
Verification: Locate a patient with a Transfusion Reaction in VBECS.
Using this patient run the CPRS Blood Bank Report and note that
transfusion reaction testing is visible in the Diagnostic Tests
Section and the Transfusion Reactions Section has an interpretation.
Install VBEC*1*54. Repeat the lookup of the CPRS Blood Bank Report
and verify that the transfusion reaction testing is absent in the
CPRS Blood Bank Report, Diagnostic Tests Section. Verify that the
Transfusion Reactions Section of the CPRS Blood Bank Report does
not change and still displays the Transfusion Reaction
Interpretations after VBEC*1*54 is installed.
To meet Food & Drug Administration (FDA) requirements, VBECS related
2. 110 VistA MR 121713 - VBECS was able to accept a specimen when the
CPRS order was assigned a Lab accession number as the order was
added to a collection list and the specimen was not collected (no
collection date/time). This change requires that the specimen
accession number must also have a collection date and time in VistA
before it can be used in VBECS for processing.
Remedy Ticket: INC000000948143
VistA (Veterans Health Information Systems Technology Architecture)
Verification: Attempt to accept a VBECS order with a blood bank
specimen that does not have a collection date and time assigned in
VistA but has been assigned an accession number per a Lab collection
list. VBECS will allow processing of the specimen UID for an order
only when the specimen has a date and time collected assigned after
VBEC*1*54 is installed.
3. 111 VistA MR 061214 - The release of ICD*18.0*57 started a
retirement countdown for ICR 3990 used to lookup ICD codes. This
lookup is used by the LRBLPCH (Patient transfusions & hematology
patches require customer validation in local Test accounts prior to
results) option in VistA Blood Bank. No new transfusion
data has been entered since LR*5.2*408 (compliance date August 18,
2011) was installed to turn off VistA Blood Bank. The end
result is that the LRBLPCH option is obsolete and the change to
ICD codes is not relevant. The LRBLPCH option will be placed out
of order with the installation of this patch.
Verification: Any attempt to execute the option will return a
message that it is out of order.
installation in Production. The user validates the Blood Bank software
4. 112 VistA MR 111914 - Workload configuration and details are not
maintained in the development accounts which results in errors when
the workload process is triggered. Minor changes to the VistA
workload code prevents the workload process from proceeding when
there is no workload to process. Changes to the VBECRPCC routine
will prevent the error caused when there is no workload to process.
Verification: None
for its intended use prior to its acceptance and use for patient care.
There is also a VistA Blood Establishment Computer Software (VBECS)
2.0.0 server update that is also being released. Please refer
to the VistA Blood Establishment Computer Software (VBECS) 2.0.0
Release Notes for detailed information about corrections in that release.
