“…Sheffield et al probed the stability of Canadian thawed FP ( n = 54), produced using the buffy coat method, finding it noninferior in residual FVIII activity at 120 hours to the 0.48 ± 0.12 IU FVIII/mL reported by Sheffield et al from PRP method FP24; mean losses of 20, 14, and 41%, in FV, FVII, and FVIII, respectively were observed, with no alteration in fibrinogen activity and a 9% prolongation of PT by 120 hours [37]. Similar results were obtained in stability studies of FFPA: Sidhu et al found FV and FVIII decreases of 9 and 14% after 120 hours of refrigerated storage and no change in FII, FVII, FX, FXI, and fibrinogen ( n = 20, sodium citrate anticoagulant) [75]; and Von Heymann et al noted losses of FII, FV, FVII, FVIII, FIX, FX, and FXI ranging from −8% (FII) to −47% (FVIII) ( n = 20, acid citrate dextrose [ACD] anticoagulant) after 144 hours of refrigerated storage [76]. Cookson et al observed mean losses of 11% FV and 33% FVIII activities relative to baseline values and lesser declines of FII, FVII, FIX, and FXII after 144 hours of refrigerated storage of thawed FP made from whole blood held at room temperature for 24 hours.…”
