📣 It's #TransfusionPractitioners tips time! The Transfusion Practitioners subgroup has developed some tips related to #singleunittransfusion A single unit policy in transfusion medicine refers to a practice where #TransfusionPractitioners administer only one unit of blood or blood product at a time to a patient, rather than administering multiple units all at once. This policy is often implemented to minimize the risks associated with blood transfusions, such as transfusion reactions or overload. 🧐 Would you like to delve deeper into the topic?

📢 #VoxSanguinis new article alert! 📚 👩⚕️This scoping review identified a total of 110 systematic reviews, and mapped them in interactive evidence maps according to clinical context and concept. 🔍 Several areas, e.g., platelet transfusion in intracerebral hemorrhage, ratio of blood products in massive transfusion and viscoelastic testing to guide platelet transfusion, are served by multiple, overlapping systematic reviews. 🖥️ Scoping reviews can be a tool to avoid research waste. This work provides a comprehensive overview of the available research in the field of platelet transfusion.

Coffee in hand, ready to start networking at the International Primary Immunodeficiencies Congress (#IPIC2023), in Rotterdam? Head over to the PPTA stand and let's chat about the many ways plasma is changing lives. Plasma contains several proteins that play essential roles in fluid balance, fighting infections, and blood clotting, among others. Certain proteins, like immunoglobulins and C1 esterase inhibitor, also serve as the starting material of plasma-derived medicinal products (PDMPs).     But why are PDMPs so important? ↓ They replace missing or deficient proteins that allow patients with rare diseases to lead healthy and more productive lives. Patients that rely on these therapies generally need regular infusions or injections throughout their lives. #PPTA #PlasmaDonorsSaveLives IPOPI - International Patient Organisation for Primary Immunodeficiencies

The TIGRIS clinical trial is a Phase 3 follow-on study evaluating the use of Polymyxin B Hemoperfusion #PMX in a randomized controlled trial of adults treated for endotoxemia and septic shock.
