An Open-Labelled, Randomized Cross-Over Study of the Effect of Electromechanical Pumps versus Conventional Gravity Flow on Platelet Transfusion in Adult Haematology Patients

Abstract: Background: Only few data are available regarding the effect of the method of platelet transfusion on the platelet increment. Although administering platelets via either a free-flowing gravity or an electromechanical pump is common practice, there are no randomized trials addressing differences between these techniques. Objectives: Our study aimed to determine whether infusion methods influence the platelet increment. Methods: We studied the effect of 3 different electromechanical pumps that are used routinely… Show more
