Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between cryoprecipitate and human albumin?

Cryoprecipitate contains fibrinogen, factor VIII, and fibronectin, while human albumin contains purified factor VIII and IX concentrates.

Cryoprecipitate is stored for up to a year, while human albumin is stored for a shorter duration.

Cryoprecipitate is pasteurized at 60°C, while human albumin is frozen at -30°C.

Cryoprecipitate has no compatibility requirements, while human albumin does. (correct)

In what cases is cryoprecipitate commonly used?

To maintain plasma albumin levels in burns.

In acute blood volume replacement.

When fibrinogen levels are low. (correct)

When factor VIII levels are low.

What is the process involved in preparing human albumin?

It contains fibrinogen, factor VIII, and fibronectin, and is stored for up to a year.

It is prepared from large pools of plasma after controlled thawing.

It is resuspended in 10-20 ml plasma after freezing to -30°C.

It is pasteurized at 60°C for 10 hours after fractionation of large pools of donated plasma. (correct)
