4 Fresh Frozen Facts to Know: A Thoughtful Look at Plasma Transfusion by Dr. Caitlin Raymond
Caitlin Raymond, MD/PhD shared an insightful chain of posts on LinkedIn:
”Fresh Frozen Facts: Part I is live! Plasma transfusion is more complicated than it looks — and not all plasma products are created equal.
In the first post of my new series, I break down the differences between FFP, PF24, thawed plasma, and more — including when and why we actually use each one. Whether you’re brushing up for boards, refining your practice, or just curious why we keep so many kinds of “yellow stuff” in the freezer, this one’s for you.
Stay tuned for the next installments:
- When should we give plasma?
- What are the risks — and what are the alternatives?
- And what are the pharmaceutical cousins of plasma in 2025?”
