Cryoprecipitate, also called cryo for short, or Cryoprecipitate Antihemophilic factor (AHF), is a frozen blood product prepared from blood plasma. [1] To create cryoprecipitate, Plasma is slowly thawed to 1–6 °C. A cold-insoluble precipitate is formed, which is collected by centrifugation, resuspended in a small amount of residual plasma ...
Cryofibrinogenemia refers to a condition classified as a fibrinogen disorder in which a person's blood plasma is allowed to cool substantially (i.e. from its normal temperature of 37 °C to the near-freezing temperature of 4 °C), causing the (reversible) precipitation of a complex containing fibrinogen, fibrin, fibronectin, and, occasionally, small amounts of fibrin split products, albumin ...
The term cryosupernatant (also called cryo-poor plasma, cryoprecipitate depleted, cryoprecipitate reduced plasma) refers to plasma from which the cryoprecipitate has been removed. It is used to treat thrombocytopenic purpura .
The breakdown of fibrinogen and fibrin results in polypeptides called fibrin degradation products (FDPs) or fibrin split products (FSPs). In a state of homeostasis between clot formation and clot dissolution, the presence of plasmin is critical, as it is the central proteolytic enzyme of coagulation and is necessary for the breakdown of fibrin ...

Fibrinogen deficiency, also known as factor I deficiency, is a rare inherited bleeding disorder related to fibrinogen function in the coagulation cascade. It is typically subclassified into four distinct fibrinogen disorders : afibrinogenemia, hypofibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia, and hypodysfibrinogenemia.
Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is a blood product made from the liquid portion of whole blood. [3] It is used to treat conditions in which there are low blood clotting factors (INR > 1.5) or low levels of other blood proteins. [3] [1] It may also be used as the replacement fluid in plasma exchange.
PT results are often reported as ratio (INR value) to monitor dosing of oral anticoagulants such as warfarin. [50] The quantitative and qualitative screening of fibrinogen is measured by the thrombin clotting time (TCT). Measurement of the exact amount of fibrinogen present in the blood is generally done using the Clauss fibrinogen assay. [47]
