About this trial
"Etablissement Français du Sang" (EFS) prepares labile blood products from blood donations that are separated by type (red blood cells, plasma and platelets).
The "Centre de Transfusion Sanguine des Armées" (CTSA) produces an innovative labile blood product, LTO-WB, corresponding to group O leukocyte-free whole blood.
The objective of the PEDESTAL EFS study is to compare the inflammatory and biological characteristics of blood products prepared by the EFS vs. the labile blood product prepared by the CTSA.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Assessment of the platelet-related inflammatory potential of blood products throughout storage.
Assessment of the platelet-related inflammatory potential throughout storage, including the concentration of platelet-related soluble immunomodulatory molecules and the cellular expression of activation markers, which characterize the quality of labile blood products, notably apheresis platelet concentrates, standard Buffy coat pooled platelet concentrate, red blood cell concentrates and fresh plasma prepared by EFS, compared to platelet, red blood cells and plasmas from LTO-WB. Several techniques will be used to this purpose, including ELISA, Luminex multi-analyte profiling for soluble immunomodulatory molecule assessment and flow cytometry for activation marker cellular expression.
