Findings reveal increased thrombin generation in stored whole blood, suggesting further investigation is needed.
Whole blood storage results in increased thrombin generation potential over time. This has previously been viewed as beneficial but could be detrimental when unchecked. These data suggest that changes in thrombin generation are due in part to phosphatidylserine expression on microvesicles produced during storage. These data highlight the need for further studies investigating the use of stored whole blood.
