POLYMORPHISM OF COLLECTION, TRANSFUSION AND EFFECTIVENESS OF DONOR PLATELETS CONCENTRATES
Abstract:
There were compared the results of 520 platelets transfusions in 8 centers. In the surveyed organizations part of prophylactic platelet transfusions ranged from 10% to 91%. On average platelet transfusions for the prevention of bleeding in 3,6 times more often than to stop the bleeding. 67,5% ofrecipients ofplatelets have oncology diseases. Target platelet concentrations for preventive transfusions seems high compared to modern evidence-based value - 10 @. 10⁰/l. 25% ofprophylactic transfusions included in the study were performed in patients with platelet count of 30 @. 10⁰l or more. In 76,7% of transfusions used platelet concentrates prepared by apheresis. Single whole blood- derived-units are used at 3,7 times more often than pooled platelets.

History
The history of blood transfusion dates back to the 17th century, when early attempts were made in animals. In 1818 James Blundell, a British doctor, performed the first successful human blood transfusion. Later in 1900, Karl...
