Adverse events in platelet-rich plasma collection and countermeasures / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the quality of platelet-rich plasma(PRP) and adverse events during PRP collection and the countermeasures, so as to provide reference for the development of PRP therapy. 【Methods】 A total of 412 patients who underwent PRP treatment from November 2020 to October 2022 were statistically analyzed in terms of the general data, PRP quality and adverse events during collection, and the countermeasures were formulated. 【Results】 PRP was collected from 409 patients with a volume of (48.391±6.262) mL, with platelet concentration at (1 125.548±366.036)×109/L. There were 33 adverse events occurred in 412 patients, with an incidence of 8.01% (33/412), among which 10 was regarding to collection and 23 were adverse reaction to blood donation. The reasons include mental factors, hyperlipidemia, hypovolemia, abnormal red blood cell morphology and venous puncture injury. 【Conclusion】 Countermeasures against the relative risk factors of adverse events during PRP collection, such as exclusion of hyperlipidemia, relieving mental stress, providing adequate communication and water to patients with low body weight, lowering the collection and transfusion flow rate to patients with poor vascular status and providing calcium gluconate to patients with low calcium response should be taken.
