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 bloodcell (rwbc) testing, therefore no patient information is reasonably known at the time of the event.Donor unit #: (b)(6).Terumo bct is awaiting return of the platelet collection set for evaluation.This product is not available within the us, but this report is being filed due to an alleged failure that could occur on a similarly marketed device platform cleared for use by the fda.

This report is being filed to provide additional information in investigation: the run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.Root cause: review of the run data file did not show a definitive root cause for the reported higher than expected white cell count of the platelet product.Based on the available information, it is possible that this leukoreduction failure may be donor related.
