Q; One bag unit of cryoprecipitate is expected to raise fibrinogen by what level?


A; A bag of transfused cryoprecipitate is expected to raise the fibrinogen level by a minimum of 30 mg/dL with a half life of 3 to 6 days. Fibrinogen levels of more than 100 mg/dL generally are considered adequate for hemostasis.
