  2. Cryoprecipitate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryoprecipitate

    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 ...

  3. Cryosupernatant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryosupernatant

    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 .

  4. Fresh frozen plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresh_frozen_plasma

    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.

  5. Blood plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_plasma

    For example, when blood pressure drops in circulatory shock, Starling forces drive fluid into the interstitium, causing third spacing. [11] Standing still for a prolonged period will cause an increase in transcapillary hydrostatic pressure. As a result, approximately 12% of blood plasma volume will cross into the extravascular compartment.

  6. Blood plasma fractionation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_plasma_fractionation

    Blood plasma is the liquid component of whole blood, and makes up approximately 55% of the total blood volume. It is composed primarily of water with small amounts of minerals, salts, ions, nutrients, and proteins in solution. In whole blood, red blood cells, leukocytes, and platelets are suspended within the plasma. [citation needed]

  7. Cohn process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cohn_process

    The continuous-flow preparation of cryoprecipitate was subsequently integrated into the process upstream of Cohn Fractionation. [ 13 ] Nevertheless, this process still serves as a major foundation for the blood industry in general and its influence can be seen as it is referred to in the development of newer methods.

  8. Cryofibrinogenemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryofibrinogenemia

    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 ...

  9. Blood product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_product

    A blood product is any therapeutic substance prepared from human blood. [1] This includes whole blood ; blood components; and plasma derivatives. Blood components include: red blood cell concentrates or suspensions; platelets produced from whole blood or via apheresis; Granulocyte , plasma ; and cryoprecipitate .
