The PlateletMapping MAFIBRIN and MAADP test results may be misleadingly high with CSPs, particularly with the TEG 5000 analyzer, most likely due to constitutive activation of GPIIb/IIIa on CSPs during storage. TEG PlateletMapping results should be interpreted with caution following CSP transfusion.
