Abstract
Two preparations of fresh frozen plasma were studied. The plasma from CPDA‐1 whole blood units was either frozen within 6 h (FFP‐I) or 18–20 h (FFP‐II) of phlebotomy. Average activity for factor VIII for FFP‐I (n = 6) and FFP‐II (n = 19) was 102% and 55%, respectively (p<0.01). Average activity for factor V and VII in both products was approximately 100%. Factor XI activity (n = 13) in FFP‐II averaged 84%. We conclude that FFP‐I and FFP‐II are equivalent in terms of coagulation factor activity except for factor VIII.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
