Event Description
|
The customer would like the run data file investigated to determine a possible cause for the elevated white blood cell (wbc) content in the platelet product.There was not a transfusion recipient or patient involved at the time of the residual white blood cell (rwbc) testing, therefore no patient information is reasonably known at the time of the event.Donor unit #: (b)(6).The platelet collection set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.

Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being filed to provide additional information in h6 and h10.Investigation: the device history records (dhr) were reviewed for this lot.There were no events noted in the dhr that would have contributed to the elevated wbc count experienced by the customer.The trima accel procedure summary (taps) report was submitted to aid in the investigation.The report confirms there were no flags indicating that the platelet product should be verified for white blood cell contamination.The donor pre platelet count was entered as 545.This donor had an actual precount of 611 on the day of donation.Trima is validated up to donor precount of 575 with maximum entry of 600.Root cause: based on the clinical findings, the cause of the white cell contamination is due to the donor platelet precount being above trima's limit.
