OBJECTIVETo investigate the effectiveness of preoperative plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion on the blood coagulation of orthopaedic patients.
METHODSSixty patients (ASA I-II) undergoing selective orthopaedic surgery were randomized into three groups (n = 20), that is, preoperative plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion for group I, intraoperative autotransfusion for group II, and group III without any managements of blood conservation. Coagulation parameters (prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen), hemoglobin and hematocrit values, platelet counts and aggregability were evaluated before the anaesthesia, 10 minutes after plateletpheresis, 10 minutes before the infusion of platelet rich plasma or autologous blood, 10 minutes after infusion, 24 and 48 hours postoperation. Intra- and postoperation blood loss and homologous blood transfusion requirements were also recorded.
RESULTSAmong three groups, there were no differences in intraoperative blood loss, perioperative haemoglobin level (Hb and Hct). As compared with group I, significant lower level of platelet counts and aggregability were observed in group II and III at the time of 24 and 48 hours after operation (P < 0.05), while postoperation blood loss and homologous blood-transfusion requirements increased at the same period (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSPreoperative plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion can ameliorate the blood coagulation in orthopaedic patients, and it is an effective way to decrease blood loss and homologous blood-transfusions requirements.

This study was aimed to investigate the effect of leukocyte depletion by filtration on the quality of apheresis platelets. 20 units of donor apheresis platelets were randomly selected and were preserved with agitation at 20 - 24 degrees C for 24 - 96 hours, then were filtered on polyester flatbed filters. The platelet concentration, mean platelet volume (MPV), volume of apheresis platelets, leukocyte count, pH value, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) concentration, K(+) concentration and CD62p expression level on surface of platelet membrane, were detected before and after filtration, as well as the rate of leukocyte depletion and platelet loss were calculated. The results showed that the leukocyte count after filtration was remarkably lower than that before filtration (p < 0.001), and the rate of leukocyte depletion was 99.97%. Platelet loss was approximately 8%, and obviously lower than that of the national standard (p < 0.001). MPV, pH value, K(+) and LDH concentration were not significantly different before and after filtration. Compared with platelets before filtration, CD62p expression level after filtration slightly decreased (p > 0.05). CD62p expression on surface of platelet membrane in perfusion fluid obtained from filter plate was obviously higher than that before filtration (p < 0.05). MA of platelet after filtration slightly decreased (p > 0.05). It is concluded that leukocyte and partial activated platelets can be removed efficiently by using polyester flatbed filters, and platelet loss is very low. Filtration does not adversely affect coagulation activity of the platelets in vitro. Apheresis platelets after filtration can fulfil quality requirements to prevent infection of cytomegalovirus and HLA alloimmunization.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the effect of high volume platelet reduction therapy on the white blood cell (WBC) count and hemoglobin (Hb) level in patients with thrombocytosis.
METHODS:
Thirty-two plateletphoreses were performed for patients with thromocytosis by using ELP or MNC program of blood component isolator of COBE spectra continuous flow concentrifugation and the ACD-A preservation solution for blood as blood anticoagulant. In each treatment of patients, 2.5-3.0 tines total blood volume (TBV) were circulated, then the platelet suspension of 1/5-1/4 time TBV was prepared and collected.
RESULTS:
A single plateletpheresis took (212.53±41.54) minutes in which (8 812.63±2087.15) ml blood were treated, and (798.84±190.77) ml platelet suspension was collected. In the suspension, the platelet count was 4 486.50 (3 058.50-5 279.50)×10/L, containing 3 455.50 (2 288.68-4 226.71)×10. WBC count was 13.79 (10.21-20.72)×10/L, containing 11.90(7.81-14.40)×10. Hemoglobin concentration was (3.28±1.25) g/L,containing (2.62 ± 1.17) g. Before and after plateletpheresis, the patients' platelet count was 1 263.00 (1 052.50-1 807.50)×10/L and (778.83±247.25)×10/L(Z=4.94, P<0.01), WBC count was 9.96(6.44-14.01)×10/L and 8.59(5.37, 13.12)×10/L (Z=13.31, P<0.05), Hemoglobin concentration was (112.63 ± 24.56)g/L and (109.55 ± 24.46)g/L (t=1.68,P>0.05).
CONCLUSION
Using continuous flow centrifugation and blood component separating in plateletpheresis for the patients with thrombocytosis can obviously decrease the high ratio of platelets, and improve the effect of plateletpheresis. The high volume platelet reduction therapy can lead to decrease of WBC count to some alent, degree but WBC count still in the normal range, moreover not affect the hemoglobin level significantly.

6.The Donation Characteristics and Serologic Safety of Plateletpheresis donor.
Korean Journal of Blood Transfusion 1995;6(1):29-34
We analyzed the predonation tests and the characteristics of plateletpheresis of the candidates and donors during 18 month at Korea University Guro Hospital from 1993 to 1995. Among the 810 candidates tested for predonation tests, 115(14.2%) candidates were deferred due to incompatible factors. The most common incompatible factor is elevated alanine aminotransferase(4.6%, ALT > 64 Iu) followed by incompatible ABO discrepancy (4.1%), positive HBsAg(3.3%), low platelet count(2.2%). 43.1 percent of the platelet donation candidates were processed plateletpheresis. 43(18%) of prospectively reviewed 240 plateletpheresis donors were relatives of the recipients. The percent of redonation was only 14% and its mean interval was 11.4 days. The result showed the plateletpheresis candidates have the relatively safety compared to that of the directed donation, social support of plateletpheresis donation program is strongly needed because of low redonation rate and characteristics of plateletpheresis donation.

BACKGROUND: Transfusion of HLA-matched platelets is required when development of platelet refractoriness occurs after repeated platelet transfusion. This study was conducted to establish a HLA-matched platelet donor registry to supply matched platelets to patients who develop platelet refractoriness. METHODS: HLA-matched platelet donors were recruited among plateletpheresis donors. HLA-A and HLA-B antigen types of recruited donors were tested using a polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotide probe method. RESULTS: A total of 1,029 plateletpheresis donors were recruited. HLA-A and HLA-B antigen frequencies of recruited donors were similar to those of previously reported HLA antigen frequencies of Koreans. During the study period, a patient with platelet refractoriness recovered after receiving six units of HLA-matched platelets. CONCLUSION: During this study 1,029 donors were registered as HLA-matched platelet donors and a patient with platelet refractoriness received HLA-matched platelets using this registry. Supply of HLA-matched platelets will be facilitated by continuous expansion of the number of registered HLA-matched platelet donors, development of a program for management and searching for HLA-matched donors, and establishment of a request-supply system between hospitals and the Korean Red Cross through further studies.

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology 2009;57(4):507-510
Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is an autosomal recessive bleeding disorder caused by qualitative or quantitative abnormalities of the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GP IIb/IIIa), which can lead to excessive bleeding. Glanzmann thrombasthenia is associated with clinical variability, with some patients only having minimal bruising and others having frequent, severe and potentially fatal hemorrhages. Platelet transfusions, which used to be the standard treatment, may lead to the development of antibodies to HLA and/or GPIIb/IIIa, thereby rendering future transfusions ineffective. Glanzmann's thrombasthenia can be a severe hemorrhagic disease; however, the prognosis is excellent with careful supportive care. In this case, administering allogenic plateletpheresis to patients with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia who were refractory to platelet transfusions was found to be successful during bone surgeries.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of information with videotape to platelet donors on the degree of anxiety and discomfort. METHODS: Between April and September 1999, we evaluated 200 first-time donors; 100 donors were selected for experiment group and informed of the platelet donation with videotape, while 100 other donors in the control group were not informed with videotape. Data were collected by using constructed questionnaires. RESLUTS: There were not significant differences regarding the degree of state anxiety between the control group and the experiment group. The degree of discomfort felt by the platelet donors of the experiment group was similar compared to the control group. There was a correlation between the anxiety and the discomfort induced during platelet donation in both experiment and control groups. The only factor influencing anxiety and discomfort was the physical condition. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that providing information through videotape did not have noticeable effect on reducing the anxiety and discomfort of the platelet donors. It is important to assess physical condition of platelet donors for more comfortable platelet donation. Based on these results, it can be proposed that more developed and effective videotape made under supervision of a specialist should be used for further providing information to the donors.

BACKGROUND: As single donor platelets (SDP) has been increasingly used, the quality of SDP, especially apheresis-induced platelet activation, has become a major issue. This study evaluated the activation of SDP platelets prepared with three different cell separators that are currently being used at the Korean Red Cross. METHODS: CD62p, CD63 and CD42 were measured in 35 units of SDP prepared with Amicus (Baxter, Deerfield, IL, USA), MCS+ (Haemonetics, Braintree, MA, USA), or Trima (Gambro BCT, Lakewood, USA) using flow cytometry. RESULTS: Expression of CD62p gradually increased with storage time, but no difference in expression was noted between cell separators. Expression of CD63 also increased with storage time and platelets prepared with the Amicus displayed significantly higher CD63 expression 72 and 120 hours after collection compared to those prepared with MCS+ and Trima. Expression of CD42b tended to decrease with storage time, but this was only significant for Amicus 120 hours after collection. No difference in CD42b expression was noted between cell separators. CONCLUSIONS: Platelet activation increased with storage time, and platelet activation was more pronounced in the platelets prepared with the Amicus. However, because in vitro results of platelet activation does not necessarily reflect in vivo platelet function and survival, additional studies are needed to clarify clinical effectiveness of activated platelets.
