PAS C platelets and Neonates

[saralm88 13]

Hi everyone! 
Quick and, hopefully, easy question - are there any contradictions to giving PAS C platelets to a neonate?  Haven’t had a lot of experience with PAS and I was hoping I could get more information from my BB friends  

Thanks!

I am aware of no rationale for not using this product in neonates.

me too.  I have seen no contraindications for neonates.

Pediatric hospital - we have been transfusing both PAS and pathogen-reduced platelets to our patients since April of this year, including neonates.  We have only had one minor allergic reaction reported from PAS to date, and it was an older patient (teenager).
