Platelet Replacement

Molecular classification
Biologic Therapy, Cellular Therapy
01

Overview

Platelet replacement refers to the therapeutic process of restoring or augmenting platelet function in patients, typically through transfusion or biologic therapies such as Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections. Platelets are essential for blood clotting and tissue repair. Platelet replacement is commonly used to treat conditions involving low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia), bleeding disorders, or to promote healing in injured tissues.
