EDTA Reactive Single Donor Platelet


Recommended Posts

One reference I read puts the prevalence of EDTA-clump-able platelets at less than 0.2% in hospitalized patients and only 0.1% in the general population.  It's a purely in vitro phenomenon so I would guess that donation processing does not include screening for it, as it would have no in vivo significance.  Interesting question though.
