Summary

This trial is testing how well platelets stored at cold conditions work in cardiac surgery patients who are actively bleeding and need a platelet transfusion.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18, who can speak/read English and weigh more than 40 kg, scheduled for complex cardiac surgery with bypass. They must understand/sign the consent form, not be in other studies, and use contraception if applicable. Excluded are those with severe transfusion reactions, certain medical conditions or treatments post-surgery, thrombocytopenia, pregnancy/breastfeeding status, prisoners, active infections or history of unprovoked blood clots.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of cold-stored platelets (1-6°C) kept for 10-14 days versus room temperature stored platelets kept up to 7 days in patients undergoing cardiac surgery who need a platelet transfusion due to active bleeding.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the transfusion process such as fever or allergic responses. There's also a risk of bleeding complications or clotting issues due to the condition of the stored platelets.
