Impact of donor and procedural parameters on platelet yield in plateletpheresis: a retrospective data analysis over a seven-month period
Abstract
AIM: To identify the donor and procedural parameters that influence the platelet yield obtained by apheresis. METHODS: A retrospective observation study of 60 plateletpheresis in the Blood Transfusion Institute of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo, was done. Plateletpheresis were performed using Amicus cell separator with platelet collection protocol, and in accordance with the work procedure of the institution. The results were compared using statistical correlation and statistical comparison between groups. The demographic and hematologic parameters of donors, as well as procedural characteristics were correlated with their platelet yield. P
