Abstrakt: Thrombo LUX ( TLX)-Score was compared with hypotonic shock response ( HSR) and extent of shape change ( ESC) in 99 samples from 42 platelet concentrates. Tests were performed in parallel and duplicate. Mean values for TLX Score, HSR and ESC were 30·3 ± 3·8%, 69·0 ± 12·2% and 23·2 ± 4·9%, respectively. We found no significant correlation between TLX Score and HSR or ESC ( r = −0·158, P = 0·118 and r = −115, P = 0·255, respectively), whereas HSR and ESC correlated significantly ( r = 0·351, P < 0·001). As TLX Score did not show significant correlation with HSR and ESC, the value of TLX for platelet quality testing remains unclear. Studies comparing these parameters with transfusion outcome are needed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
