Fresh Frozen Plasma Versus Solvent Detergent Plasma for Cardiopulmonary Bypass Priming in Neonates and Infants Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study. J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:1144-1149. [PMID: 38383273 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2024.01.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Compared with fresh frozen plasma (FFP), Omniplasma has been attributed to an increased coagulation potential and an increased fibrinolytic potential. This study aimed to compare Omniplasma and FFP used for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) priming regarding the incidence of postoperative thrombotic or hemorrhagic complications and outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery. DESIGN A retrospective observational cohort study SETTING: This single-center study was performed at the University Medical Center Groningen. PARTICIPANT All pediatric patients up to 10 kg undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB. INTERVENTIONS Procedures in which FFP was used for CPB priming were compared with those in which Omniplasma was used. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary outcome parameter was a composite endpoint consisting of the following: (1) pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) mortality, (2) thromboembolic complications, and (3) hemorrhagic complications during PICU stay. The authors included 143 procedures in the analyses, 90 (63%) in the FFP group and 53 (37%) in the Omniplasma group. The occurrence of the combined primary endpoint (FFP 20% v Omniplasma 11%, p = 0.18) and its components did not differ between the used CPB priming agent). Omniplasma for CPB priming was associated with decreased unfractionated heparin administration per kg bodyweight (585 IU v 510 IU, p = 0.03), higher preoperative and postoperative activated clotting times (ACT) discrepancy (90% v 94%, p = 0.03), a lower postoperative ACT value (125 v 118 seconds, p = 0.01), and less red blood cell transfusion per kilogram bodyweight (78 v 55 mL, p = 0.02). However, none of the variables differed statistically significantly in the multivariate logistic regression analyses. CONCLUSIONS The authors did not find an association between the plasma used for CPB priming and thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications and death in neonates and infants undergoing cardiac surgery. Omniplasma seems to be safe to use in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND OctaplasLG is a frozen solvent/detergent-treated plasma product used for treating complex coagulation factor deficiencies or as substitution therapy in emergency situations where specific factor concentrates are not available. A new freeze-dried (also known as lyophilized) form of OctaplasLG, referred as OctaplasLG Lyo (Octapharma AG, Switzerland) offers rapid reconstitution and more flexible storage conditions, improving logistics and utilization. This study compared the biochemical quality of OctaplasLG Lyo with OctaplasLG and single-donor fresh frozen plasma units. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Three batches of OctaplasLG Lyo, manufactured for production process qualification, and 12 batches of OctaplasLG were provided by Octapharma AB (Sweden). Twelve units of fresh frozen plasma were collected by the local FDA-licensed blood provider. All plasma samples were assessed for global coagulation parameters, coagulation factors and protease inhibitors, activation markers of coagulation and fibrinolysis, and important plasma proteins. Quality control assays were conducted in accordance with European Pharmacopeia requirements. RESULTS Frozen and freeze-dried OctaplasLG demonstrated comparable quality profiles upon thawing or reconstitution. All coagulation factor and protease inhibitor activity parameters were in line with levels mandated by the European Pharmacopeia. Fresh frozen plasma units showed comparable coagulation factor activities, with higher protein S and plasmin inhibitor levels than the OctaplasLG products. Fresh frozen plasma parameters showed high lot-to-lot variations. DISCUSSION The two pharmaceutical forms of OctaplasLG (frozen and freeze-dried) have comparable biochemical quality. Key features of OctaplasLG Lyo are rapid reconstitution time and storage flexibility, which may improve logistics and utilization, and have particular advantages in emergency situations and pre-hospital settings.

Abstract
Resuscitation of the critically ill patient with fluid and blood products is one of the most widespread interventions in medicine. This is especially relevant for trauma patients, as hemorrhagic shock remains the most common cause of preventable death after injury. Consequently, the study of the ideal resuscitative product for patients in shock has become an area of great scientific interest and investigation. Recently, the pendulum has swung towards increased utilization of blood products for resuscitation. However, pathogens, immune reactions and the limited availability of this resource remain a challenge for clinicians. Technologic advances in pathogen reduction and innovations in blood product processing will allow us to increase the safety profile and efficacy of blood products, ultimately to the benefit of patients. The purpose of this article is to review the current state of blood product based resuscitative strategies as well as technologic advancements that may lead to safer resuscitation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver transplantation is a standard treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD). However, with increasing demand for this treatment and limited resources, it is available only to patients who are more likely to survive. The primary aim was to determine prognostic factors for survival. METHODS We collected data from 597 adult patients with ESLD, who received a single organ and initial orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) in our center between 20 March 2008 and 20 March 2018. In this historical cohort study, univariate and multiple Cox model were used to determine prognostic factors of survival after transplantation. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 825 (0-3889) days, 111 (19%) patients died. Survival rates were 88%, 85%, 82% and 79% at 90 days, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years, respectively. Older patients (HR = 1.27; 95% CI: 1.01-1.59), presence of pre-OLT ascites (HR = 2.03; 95% CI: 1.16-3.57), pre-OLT hospitalization (HR = 1.88; 95% CI:1.02-3.46), longer operative time (HR = 1.006; 95% CI: 1.004-1.008), post-OLT dialysis (HR = 3.51; 95% CI: 2.07-5.94), cancer (HR = 2.69; 95% CI: 1.23-5.89) and AID (HR = 2.04; 95% CI: 1.17-3.56) as underlying disease versus hepatitis, and higher pre-OLT creatinine (HR = 1.67; 95% CI: 1.10-2.52) were associated with decreased survival. CONCLUSION In this center, not only are survival outcomes excellent, but also younger patients, cases with better pre-operative health conditions, and those without complications after OLT have superior survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Transfusion of older red blood cells (RBCs) has been implicated in poor outcomes in trauma, cardiac surgery, and critically ill patients. However, whether transfusion of older RBCs plays any role in post-OLT AKI remained unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the age of transfused RBCs on post-OLT AKI. METHODS The clinical data of consecutive adult patients who received donation after cardiac death and underwent OLT from December 2011 to December 2015 were analyzed. These patients were divided into 2 groups: the newer blood group, who received exclusively RBCs that had been stored for <14 days; and the older blood group, who received RBCs that had been stored for 14 days or more. The incidence of post-OLT AKI, severe AKI, lengths of intensive care unit and hospital stay, and in-hospital mortality after OLT were analyzed. RESULTS Postoperative AKI occurred in 65.1% of patients in the older blood group and 40.5% of patients in the newer blood group (P < .01). The incidence of severe AKI after OLT was significantly higher, and the duration of intensive care unit stay was significantly longer, in the older blood group. After adjustment by the multivariable regression logistic analysis, transfusion of older blood was independently associated with post-OLT AKI (odds ratio [OR] = 2.47 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.13-5.41]; P = .024) and severe AKI (OR = 5.88 [95% CI, 2.06-16.80]; P = .001). After adjustment by the inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis, patients in the older blood group still had significantly higher incidences of postoperative AKI (OR = 2.13 [95% CI, 1.07-4.22]; P = .030) and severe AKI (OR = 3.34 [95% CI, 1.47-7.60]; P = .003) than those in the newer blood group. CONCLUSIONS Transfusion of older RBCs significantly increased the risk of postoperative AKI in liver transplant recipients.

Abstract
OctaplasLG is indicated for use in patients undergoing cardiac surgery who require replacement of multiple clotting factors. The use of OctaplasLG over single-donor fresh frozen plasma (FFP) may have beneficial effects when considering the transmission of enveloped viruses. Additionally, it has the potential for fewer adverse reactions, reduced disease transmission, and a more homogenous coagulation factor composition. However, its efficacy and safety have not yet been evaluated in the pediatric population. Pediatric patients aged less than 2 years old and less than 10 kg, who underwent complete tetralogy of Fallot repair and received either OctaplasLG or FFP intraoperatively were identified over a 10-year period for this retrospective analysis. A review of case notes, intra-operative, and laboratory data were used to assess intraoperative blood product usage, blood loss, and postoperative coagulopathy. Data were analyzed to assess the efficacy of OctaplasLG in achieving hemostasis when compared to FFP. Results showed clinically better hemostasis postoperatively in OctaplasLG group compared with FFP group and better coagulation results. OctaplasLG was as effective as FFP when used in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Within the last decade new technologies have been developed and implemented which employ light, often in the presence of a photosensitizer, to inactivate pathogens that reside in human blood products for the purpose of transfusion. These pathogen reduction technologies attempt to find the proper balance between pathogen kill and cell quality. Each system utilizes various chemistries that not only impact which pathogens they can inactivate and how, but also how the treatments affect the plasma and cellular proteins and to what degree. This paper aims to present the various chemical mechanisms for pathogen reduction in transfusion medicine that are currently practiced or in development.
