Retention of hemostatic and immunological properties of frozen plasma and COVID‐19 convalescent apheresis fresh‐frozen plasma produced and freeze‐dried in Canada
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Randomized clinical trial data show that early plasma transfusion may save lives among trauma patients. Supplying plasma in remote environments is logistically challenging. Freeze-dried plasma (FDP) offers a possible solution.
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: A Terumo BCT plasma freeze-drying system was evaluated. We compared pooled frozen plasma (FP) units with derived Terumo BCT FDP (TFDP) units and pooled COVID-19 convalescent apheresis …
