FDA 483 - Utah Valley Hospital - December 11, 2025

The FDA inspected Utah Valley Hospital in Provo, UT, focusing on its Hospital Transfusion Service. The inspection revealed a failure to maintain adequate storage and distribution records for blood products, specifically concerning emergency releases and returns that lacked proper physician signatures as required by the hospital's own Standard Operating Procedure. This indicates a significant lapse in adherence to established procedures for critical blood product management.
