title: In vitro effect on stored red blood cells and platelets after a 15-hour delayed refrigeration of whole blood prior to component preparation in CPD-AD.
abstract: We extended the time of keeping whole blood at 20-24 degrees C to 15 h (overnight) after phlebotomy for preparing platelet concentrates. We have evaluated the in vitro characteristics of platelets and blood cells prepared from whole blood drawn into CPD-AD, an anticoagulant containing 0.4 mM adenine and 1.5 times more dextrose than CPD. We studied in vitro red cell and platelet function of blood cooled either within 4 h after collection or after a 15-hour delay. In vitro platelet function measured as hypotonic shock reaction, aggregation response to ADP and collagen and 14C-serotonin uptake were not significantly different after preparation and after a 5-day storage period. Units held at room temperature for 15 h after blood collection exhibited a level of 2,3-DPG that was 45% of that exhibited by red cells held for 15 h at 1-6 degrees C. All other in vitro parameters of red cell concentrates measured during 35 days of storage were not significantly different. Based on these in vitro data blood drawn into CPD-AD might be kept up to 15 h at room temperature prior to refrigeration in order to prepare platelet concentrates.
