Definitions of Refractoriness
2-3 consecutive platelet transfusions by CCI
or PPR

Evaluating Platelet Transfusion Response
Corrected Count Increment (CCI):
• In vivo Measurement Platelet Survival
• Number of Platelets Transfused
• Size of Patient
• Requires a 1-4 hour post-platelet count
• Positive Predictor platelet survival at 20 hrs
Corrected Count Increment
Whole Blood Derived Platelet Concentrates
CCI= (post-platelet count - pre-platelet count)(BSA)
(3.5 [approximate # platelets transfused x 1011])
CCI > 7.5 Good Response
* Platelet count at 1 hour post transfusion,
BSA=body surface area in M 2
Example: Patient (1.7 M 2) transfused with 5 units
pooled platelets for platelet count=2. At 1 hr,
plts=30K. CCI=(30-2)(1.7)/3.5=13.6
Specialty Products
Documented Refractory Patients
Pathology consultation and approval
• Crossmatched Platelets (First Choice)
– Single donor apheresis platelets “crossmatched”
solid-phase technique with patient’s serum
• HLA Platelets
– require HLA antibody screen + HLA type
– Antigen negative: lack specific HLA antigens
– HLA-matched: A or B matches only, require 810 days from Los Angeles Red Cross
