Abstract:
【Objective】 To explore biosafety countermeasures and optimize the sample detection procedures for the COVID-19 in tertiary hospitals in Wuhan, so as to provide effective protection for blood transfusion laboratory. 【Methods】 Referring to General Requirements for Laboratory Biosafety, Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Prevention and Control Program (Fourth Edition), Technical Guide for Laboratory Testing of the Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (Fourth Edition), the Novel Coronavirus Laboratory Biology Safety Guidelines (Second Edition) and other technical guidelines and expert consensus, relevant biosafety protection measures and testing procedures were formulated in combination of the layout and conditions of our laboratory. 【Results】 The biosafety zoning of blood transfusion laboratory, procedures for sample receiving, testing, and sterilizing, as well as the protection procedures for workers entering and exiting the laboratory were formulated, with good adherence with the relevant laws, regulations and technical specifications concerning COVID-19. During the prevention and treatment of the COVID-19, the work of blood transfusion department was carried out orderly, without any medical staff infection. 【Conclusion】 The biosafety protection measures and sample detection procedures in compliance with relevant laws, regulations and technical specifications, taking the actual condition of our laboratory into consideration, can effectively prevent and control the infection of COVID-19 and protect the health of medical staff.
