Freeze-dried plasma in remote and urgent situations

BJH - volume 15, issue 3, may 2024

P. Zachée MD, PhD

SUMMARY

Freeze-dried plasma has logistical advantages in terms of storage and reconstitution time compared to fresh-frozen plasma. In vitro studies show freeze-dry plasma to be equivalent to fresh-frozen plasma regarding coagulation and clotting capacities. Freeze-dry plasma is used in an increasing number of countries, and has a logistical advantage in remote and urgent situations.

Is microfilaria a transfusion transmissible disease?

BJH - volume 11, issue 7, november 2020

P. Zachée MD, PhD

SUMMARY

Due to intensive travel connections and global warming, it is possible that the vector adapts to the climatic environment of the northern half-front and that an initially tropical infectious disease becomes an emerging infectious disease in European countries. For this reason, we raise the question in the Belgian Hematology Society journal: Is microfilaria a transfusion transmissible disease? The answer is no.
