Each year, millions of platelet transfusions save the lives of cancer patients and patients with bleeding complications. However, between 10 and 30% of all platelet transfusions are clinically ineffective as measured by corrected count increments, but no test is currently used to identify and avoid these transfusions. ThromboLUX(®) is the first platelet test intended to routinely characterize platelet concentrates prior to transfusion.
