Aim: Extended life plasma (ELP) is fresh frozen plasma (FFP) that has been thawed and intended for extended storage at 2-6 C beyond 24 hours and up to 5 days (120 hours). This extended shelf life provides an opportunity to reduce wastage, given that there is more time to utilise the product before expiry; as well as provide the product promptly for patients in emergency or retrieval settings, with the potential to develop trauma induced coagulopathy or coagulopathy from haemorrhage to improve survival.
