Among adults undergoing cardiac surgery at high risk of bleeding and platelet transfusion, cryopreserved platelets did not meet noninferiority for controlling postoperative bleeding and were less effective than liquid-stored platelets. #CCRdownunder ja.ma/4rEC06z
JAMA article titled 'Cryopreserved vs Liquid-Stored Platelets for the Treatment of Surgical Bleeding'. Key points: cryopreserved platelets may be less effective/safe than liquid-stored for cardiac surgery bleeding; didn't meet noninferiority criterion.
