Additional Info

  • Here is how we recognize a single unit:
    • A single unit is what the blood bank (Canadian Blood Services) says it is. A single unit is accompanied by a single, unique sticker that is put by nursing on the Blood Products Administration Record in hospital charts. So, the number of units you record should equal the number of stickers on the record.
    • So while on average 1000 mL of FFP is 4 such units (and there'll be 4 FFP stickers for that day on the Blood Products Administration Record), the true situation is that the volume in a single liter of FFP is not a fixed number.
