New Cryoprecipitate Pool Size of 5 Units
There is a new pool size for Cryoprecipitate. DeGowin Blood Center will no longer stock 2, 6 and 10 unit pools. Instead, there will be one Cryoprecipitate pool size of 5 units. The Epic Cryoprecipitate Dispense and Administer order will be revised to reflect this change. LIPs will have to option to order one or more 5 unit pools or to order a specific volume in mLs.
This change will be effective December 17, 2013. Questions about appropriate Cryoprecipitate dosing can be referred to the Pathology Resident pager 3404.
