Volume Satu Unit Konsentrat Trombosit

Satu unit konsentrat trombosit yang berasal dari donor tunggal (whole blood-derived platelet concentrate) memiliki volume sekitar 50–70 mL, sedangkan satu unit apheresis mengandung 150–450 mL plasma. 1, 2

Volume Berdasarkan Jenis Produk

Konsentrat Trombosit dari Donor Tunggal (Random Donor)

  • Volume rata-rata: 50–70 mL per unit 1, 3, 4
  • Studi menunjukkan volume berkisar antara 22–135 mL tergantung metode preparasi 3, 4
  • Setiap unit mengandung sekitar 7,5 × 10¹⁰ trombosit 1, 2
  • Volume 65 mL adalah standar yang umum digunakan dalam praktik 4

Unit Apheresis (Single-Donor Platelet)

  • Volume: 150–450 mL (biasanya 200–250 mL) 1, 2, 5
  • Mengandung 3–4 × 10¹¹ trombosit per unit 1, 2, 5
  • Setara dengan 4–6 unit konsentrat trombosit dari donor tunggal 1, 2
  • Volume yang lebih besar ini dapat menjadi pertimbangan pada pasien dengan risiko kelebihan volume 2

Implikasi Klinis Volume

Dosis Standar Dewasa

  • Dosis terapeutik standar: 4–6 unit konsentrat trombosit (total volume ~250–350 mL) atau 1 unit apheresis (150–450 mL) 1, 2
  • Kedua pilihan memberikan efek hemostatik yang setara 6
  • Waktu transfusi: 30–60 menit per unit 1, 2

Pertimbangan Pediatrik

  • Untuk anak dengan berat 20 kg, dosis target adalah 1,2–1,6 × 10¹¹ trombosit 2
  • Unit apheresis perlu dilakukan reduksi volume menjadi 50–100 mL untuk menghindari kelebihan volume pada anak 2
  • Proses reduksi volume menyebabkan kehilangan trombosit 15–55% 2
  • Alternatif: pooling 2–3 unit konsentrat trombosit (total volume 100–180 mL) 2

Peningkatan Hitung Trombosit yang Diharapkan

  • Satu unit konsentrat trombosit (50–70 mL) meningkatkan hitung trombosit 5.000–10.000/µL pada dewasa 70 kg 1, 5
  • Satu unit apheresis (150–450 mL) meningkatkan hitung trombosit >30.000/µL 2, 5, 7
  • Corrected Count Increment (CCI) ≥5.000 menunjukkan respons yang adekuat 2, 5

Kesalahan Umum yang Harus Dihindari

  • Jangan menggunakan unit apheresis penuh pada anak kecil tanpa reduksi volume—ini mewakili 12–25% volume darah sirkulasi pada anak 20 kg dan meningkatkan paparan donor tanpa manfaat tambahan 2
  • Pastikan kompatibilitas ABO untuk mencapai peningkatan yang optimal; ketidakcocokan ABO mengurangi recovery trombosit secara signifikan 2, 5, 7
  • Reduksi volume harus dilakukan dalam sistem tertutup untuk mempertahankan masa simpan 5 hari; sistem terbuka memerlukan transfusi dalam 6 jam 2
  • Jangan mendiagnosis refraktori trombosit setelah satu transfusi yang buruk—diperlukan minimal 2 transfusi berturut-turut yang kompatibel ABO dengan CCI <5.000 2, 5
