The aim of this study to assess platelet activation during 5 days storage of platelet concentrates prepared by different techinques .
Platelet transfusion is a lifesaving procedure that is carried out to prevent bleeding or stop ongoing bleeding in patients with low platelet count or functional platelet disorders. There are minimum thresholds at which platelets are transfused in these patients, as not all low levels of platelet warrants a transfusion. Platelet is a scarce resource as processing, preparing, and transfusing it requires a great deal of precision and effort to maintain a certain quality. This activity highlights the use of platelet transfusion by the interprofessional team (1).
Platelets play an integral role in hemostasis by its response to vascular injury. The relevance of platelet component therapy was better understood in the 1950s and 1960s when severe and fatal hemorrhagic complications of chemotherapy in leukemia were studied
The collected blood units were randomly assigned to two groups:

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Non-filtered platelet concentrates (NF-PC group). | In NF-PC group, 90 whole blood units were collected with Tripple blood bags, Six NF-PCs were pooled together and stored in a horizonal shaker at 20 ± 2C for 5 days . | ||
| leukocyte-depleted platelet concentrates (LD-PC group). | In LD-PC group, another 90 whole blood units were collected using Whole Blood Filter Saving Platelets (WB-SP) bags with an integrated leukoreduction filter |
