Platelet Transfusion Toolkit

The Platelet Transfusion toolkit was developed on the basis of the findings from the 2017 Provincial Platelet audit and provides recommendations to assist in the screening of orders for, and enhance the appropriate use of, platelet transfusion.  The toolkit contains algorithms for the evaluation of platelet orders for adults, children and neonates as well as recommendations on the use of non-ABO/Rh specific platelets and management of platelet refractoriness.
