Plateletpheresis during Plasma Collection

The International Journal of Artificial Organs, 1993
New systems for collection of platelet concentrate (PC) and platelet poor plasma (PPP) are presently available. The aim of our work was to test the possibility of preparing PC routinely from normal plasma donors in a minimum amount of time and, at the same time, providing a second product that can be used as source-plasma or fresh-frozen plasma.

Therapeutic Plateletpheresis in Thombocythemia

Transfusion, 1979
Patients with myeloproliferative thrombocythemia have usually been managed with chemotherapy. Generally, removal of platelets from such patients has been performed intermittently to lower the platelet mass rapidly when neurologic or hemorrhagic complications were manifest or concurrently with the initiation of chemotherapy.

Plateletpheresis in a Disposable System

Vox Sanguinis, 1971
A new plastic disposable system is described for the removal of platelets from single packs of ACD blood, single units of blood directly from a donor, or multiple cycles of whole blood (plateletpheresis) from the same donor in a continuous flow system.

Hypocalcaemia during plateletpheresis

Transfusion Science, 1990
Abstract Hypocalcaemia is a well recognized side-effect of citrate anticoagulation associated with plateletpheresis. In order to assess the frequency of this complication and to determine whether symptoms could be abolished with oral pretreatment of subjects with milk, calcium or vitamin D we prospectively evaluated total and ionizable serum calcium ...

Donor neutrophil function after plateletpheresis

Transfusion, 2000
BACKGROUND: Neutrophils are important mediators of inflammation and may be activated by foreign surfaces in apheresis systems. Because most of the WBCs are returned to the donor, it was investigated whether artificial activation leads to altered donor neutrophil function.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Three apheresis systems (Amicus, Autopheresis‐C, and CS ...

Ionized Calcium During Plateletpheresis

Transfusion, 1978
The concentration of ionized calcium (Ca++) during platelepheresis was monitored when donors received 461 ± 95 (mean ± S.D.) ml of anticoagulant acid‐citrate‐dextrose (ACD), N.I.H. formula A. Most donors experienced mild subjective symptoms (perioral tingling) during reinfusion of autologous blood.

Intensive Multiunit Plateletpheresis of Normal Donors

Transfusion, 1974
Intensive plateletpheresis was performed on 39 donors on 104 occasions in order to provide compatible platelets for patients refractory to transfusions from random donors. From three to eight units of platelet concentrate were obtained at each donation and repeated donations could be performed efficiently and safely.

[Complications of plateletpheresis procedures].

Sangre, 1999
Thrombopheresis procedures have been recently expanded with the development or different programmes. Taking into account that this reasonably safe procedure is not devoid of complications, it would be desirable to select those individuals with lower risk of suffering adverse side effects as donors.

Plateletpheresis vs Plateletapheresis or Thrombocytapheresis

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1976
To the Editor.— In the report on donor RBC lysis by Howard and Perkins (236:289,1976), the term "plateletpheresis" was included in the title and appeared several times in the text. It was also present in the titles of three of the four references cited.

Long‐Term Plateletpheresis of a Donor

Transfusion, 1980
A 25‐year‐old woman underwent plateletpheresis 101 times over a 33‐month period. The equivalent of 5.8 to 7.5 units of platelet concentrate was removed during each pheresis. Two machine‐related complications occurred, resulting in the loss of one unit of blood and 150 milliliters of plasma.
