Safety And Field Evaluation of Plasma Lyophilized for Acute and Surgical Management Applications
Sponsor: Teleflex
Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety of freeze-dried plasma (FDP), known as EZPLAZ, with conventional plasma in adults who need a plasma transfusion. Plasma is the liquid part of blood that contains proteins that help blood clot. The main question is whether the risk of blood clots or death within 7 days after the first transfusion is not unacceptably higher with FDP than with conventional plasma. Participating hospitals will follow a randomly assigned schedule that determines which plasma product enrolled participants receive during each week. Participants will receive the product assigned to their hospital for that week during the first 24 hours of treatment. The treating physician will determine how much plasma is needed. After the first 24 hours, participants may receive either product if additional plasma is required. Participants will be followed for 28 days after their first study transfusion. Information about blood clots, transfusion reactions, or other medical problems, and survival. Trial information will come from routine medical care and medical records. Follow-up after hospital discharge may include telephone contact with the participant or their legally authorized representative. No additional laboratory tests are required solely for this study.

Conditions
Interventions
Freeze-Dried Plasma
Single-donor human plasma supplied in freeze-dried form and reconstituted with sterile water before transfusion. Administered by intravenous or intraosseous infusion as prescribed by the treating physician and in accordance with institutional transfusion policies. Dose is determined by clinical need.
Conventional Plasma
Conventional plasma products selected, prepared, and administered according to each institution's standard of care. The protocol does not restrict the types of conventional plasma used. The treating physician determines the dose based on clinical need.
