Infusion of ABO-mismatched platelets is associated with an increased incidence of multi-organ failure and death in stem cell transplants for acute myeloid leukemia. 3 In many centers, the approach to ...
This was a prospective randomized control study of 43 platelet transfusions given to newborns. Transfusions were randomized to run over either 30 min or 2 h. Platelet counts taken 30 min and 6 h after ...
OBJECTIVE: To determine the most effective, evidence-based approach to the use of platelet transfusions in patients with cancer. OUTCOMES: Outcomes of interest included prevention of morbidity and ...
Transfusion guidelines regarding platelet-count thresholds before the placement of a central venous catheter (CVC) offer conflicting recommendations because of a lack of good-quality evidence. The ...
Researchers may be one step closer to improving treatments for bleeding disorders. They have devised a way to maximize the numbers and function of clot-forming blood cells from mice. Researchers may ...
Promacta tended to boost platelet counts in patients with low-risk MDS, and helped those patients be independent of transfusions, too. Promacta (eltrombopag) improved platelet counts in patients with ...
Febrile responses to platelet transfusions are common but some can be life-threatening and the cause of these reactions is largely unknown. In June 23 Lancet, Richard Phipps and colleagues from ...
A new guideline for administering platelet transfusions to adult patients emphasizes judicious use of the procedure to reduce patient risk and conserve resources, according to an article published ...
Turbulence is a critical physical factor that promotes the large-scale production of functional platelets from human induced pluripotent stem cells, researchers reportl. Exposure to turbulent energy ...
