Sue Miller Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Does anyone have a weight limit or age limit when you switch from group specific or compatible to any type platelet for transfusions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoertzen Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I supervise the Transfusion Service at a Children's Hospital and we use the weight limit of 45 Kg to determine when ABO plasma compatible platelets must be given. We will volume reduce ABO plasma incompatible platelets for kids that weigh less than 45 Kg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
