Here’s an interesting podcast I
found this morning. Dr Chaffin and co-host Dr. Heidi Shafi discuss “Five Essentials of Cryoprecipitate.” The
blood product cryoprecipitate, prepared by slow-thawing fresh frozen plasma, is
declining in use around the world but seems to be increasing in use in the
United States.
This
discussion will help dispel myths and misunderstandings about the most
misunderstood blood component. Dr. Chaffin discusses how cryo is made, what is
in it, how it is prepared for transfusion, how it is used, and finally, what
the future looks like for the use of cryo
