Blood Services Regulatory Compliance
Achieving and maintaining compliance with the numerous regulations and standards within the Blood and Tissue sector such as the FDA’s 21 CFR, AABB, CLIA-88, the EU Blood Directive, NetCord-FACT, ISO 15189 and ISO 17125, all require time and money. Strict quality and safety requirements demanded by these regulators means organisations must implement an effective system to integrate and centralise all their quality processes and procedures, to easily demonstrate compliance.
Q-Pulse, from Gael, is a fully integrated Electronic Quality Management Solution (eQMS) that will help blood centres and blood and tissue manufacturers significantly decrease the time and cost spent on day to day compliance activities including, Internal and External Audits, Document Management, Corrective and Preventive Actions (CA/PA), Training Management, Incident Management, Customer Complaints and Supplier Management.
Delivering a complete Quality Management Solution to our Blood Services customers, Q-Pulse also enables an organisation to identify key areas of quality improvement, and identify processes to improve efficiency.

Marilyn Jeffers, Project Manager for Quality Assurance at Blood Bank of Alaska, quickly realised the benefits of Q-Pulse. She said: "Having looked at competitive systems, we found that Q-Pulse delivers real value for blood operations such as ourselves; Q-Pulse integrates easily with our existing systems and gives us exactly what we were looking for, for considerably less than comparable systems…we’ve made huge savings in time, effort and cost in terms of managing our information."
