Figure 3. Age-mismatch transfusion of platelet concentrates and possible adverse events. Currently, platelet concentrates are collected from adult donors. Adult platelets feature a distinct phenotype that is different from the physiologic properties of neonatal platelets. Possible harmful effects have to be considered and investigated in more detail. TRALI, transfusion-related acute lung injury; ulVWF, unusually large VWF.
