DESCRIPTION
Two platelet products are used predominantly in the US. The first is apheresis platelets and the second is platelet concentrates prepared through separation of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from donated whole blood. Newer platelet products have been developed that address a number of disadvantages of these standard products. This audioconference will focus on the technical specifications and product characteristics of four new products that have potential to gain widespread use in the US.
