Cooling prolongs platelet shelf life

The research found that cooling platelets can extend their shelf life from five to seven days up to three to four weeks, enhancing their availability for treating bleeding. The study demonstrated that cooled platelets were as effective as those stored at room temperature, reducing waste and helping hospitals in rural areas provide safe and effective blood for severe bleeding cases. Regulatory agencies, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, have begun reviewing the findings to update storage standards and expand the use of this technology.
