In vivo viability of extended 4°C‐stored autologous apheresis platelets

Abstract

The current 5‐day storage time of room temperature (22°C)‐stored platelets (RSPs) severely limits platelet (PLT) availability. Extended cold (4°C)‐stored PLTs (CSPs) are currently being investigated for actively bleeding patients. However, we currently do not know how to best store PLTs in the cold for extended periods of time. In this study, we investigate how storage in plasma and PLT additive solutions (PASs) affects PLT viability in vivo.
