AABB User Guide: Circular of Information for the Use of Human Blood and Blood Components

The AABB User Guide for the December 2021 Circular of Information for the Use of Human Blood and Blood Components (Circular) is intended to supplement your understanding of FDA’s regulatory requirements related to use of the Circular. It explains the role of this “extension of labeling” that is used on a daily basis by blood collection establishments, transfusion services, and health-care providers. The User Guide includes numerous links to resources that will assist you with compliance and day-to-day use of the Circular. This User Guide also provides information on the appropriate use of an electronic version (USB drive format) of the Circular.

The Circular and the User Guide are made available to you through the important work of the AABB Circular of Information Task Force.
