| Abstract: | Non-transfusion autologous platelet concentrate (PC), also known as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), has become a widely used blood-based product in the field of sports medicine, rehabilitation medicine, and clinical medicine. Currently, autologous PC or PRP operation procedures (personnel qualification, equipment, methods, environment and tracking, protocols, preparations, techniques and product quality control) lack unified specifications and standards, which lead to inconsistencies in the quality of PC or PRP products made by medical institutions, affecting treatment efficiency. In blood collection and supply organizations, the collection of blood components has a series of standard operating procedures (SOP) and quality assurance which can be referenced by medical institutions to standardize the preparation and usage of patient autologous PC or PRP products. According to Technical Standards for Preparation of Platelet Concentrate for Blood Stations, we compiled this guideline for medical staff to prepare high quality and reliable PC or PRP products in order to promote the standardization of PC or PRP in clinical application. |
