Stability of coagulation parameters in ACD-FFPA.
| TEST | Time of refrigerated storage (hours) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 24 | 120 | |
| FV (IU/mL) | 0.971 ± 0.18 | 0.864 ± 0.15 (89)∗ | 0.806 ± 0.15 (83)∗∗∗ |
| FVII (IU/mL) | 1.08 ± 0.22 | 0.955 ± 0.19 (88)∗ | 0.904 ± 0.16 (84)∗∗∗ |
| FVIII (IU/mL) | 1.73 ± 0.46 | 1.07 ± 0.30 (62)∗∗∗ | 0.786 ± 0.23 (45)∗∗∗ |
| Fibrinogen (grams/L) | 2.79 ± 0.50 | 2.76 ± 0.45 (99) | 2.77 ± 0.47 (99) |
| PT (seconds) | 13.1 ± 0.62 | 13.7 ± 0.53 (105)∗∗∗ | 14.1 ± 0.53 (108)∗∗∗ |
Values are reported as the mean ± one standard deviation; ∗ p < 0.05 and ∗∗∗ p < 0.001 versus 0 hours value for each parameter. Parenthetical values are the activity or clotting time at time t as a percentage of that at time t = 0.
