With improvements in apheresis collection, platelet additive solution (PAS) is steadily replacing plasma as the storage medium in single donor platelets (SDP). Concentrating platelets in SDP with one-third of plasma and two-thirds of PAS is referred as Concentrated-SDP (C-SDP). We studied the influence of donor hematocrit (Hct) in C-SDP procedures. A retrospective study, consisting of 124 and 95 plateletpheresis donors in MCS+ and Trima respectively. We compared two apheresis equipments MCS+ and Trima with regard to donor hematocrit on procedural parameters such as collection efficiency (CE), collection rate (CR), yield per hour (Y/H), yield per litre (Y/L) and percentage blood volume processed (%BV) during C-SDP procedures. Donors were categorized into two groups with Group A (Hct ≤ 46%) and Group B (Hct &gt; 46%) based on mean baseline Hct of the study population. Among the 219 procedures, the overall CE was significantly higher for Trima over MCS+ equipment (77 vs 56, P  &lt; 0.001). However, there was no difference in procedural outcomes like CE, Y/L, Y/H, CR with MCS+ or Trima equipment between groups. %BV processed had a negative correlation with hematocrit in MCS+ ( r  = - 0.305, P  = 0.001) and no difference was observed with Trima equipment. Donor Hct influences C-SDP collection only in processed blood volume with MCS+ equipment. Trima had statistically better performance over MCS+ equipments in all procedural parameters during C-SDP procedures. The data will guide apheresis centre to choose equipments based on donor characteristics.
