Following requests from hospital laboratories and Regional Transfusion Committees (RTC) / Hospital Transfusion Committees (HTC) for support in responding to the transfusion-related recommendations of the Infected Blood Inquiry, the National Blood Transfusion Committee has produced this template checklist detailing each of the transfusion-related subpoints relevant for hospitals within Recommendation 7 of the IBI Report.  RTCs, HTCs and Hospitals are welcome to use this as a starting point for considering their own response to the Inquiry recommendations.  Formal responses to the IBI report is being led by NHSE and will be shared as these become available.
