Joly, 2017; Sawler, 2020) Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) (contains ADMTS-13) may be used to supplement ADAMTS-13 if there is a delay in initiating TPE in the emergency department (i.e. Decreases production of anti-ADAMTS13 antibodies by removing the B cells that mature into autoantibody-secreting plasma cells.

Fresh frozen plasma, or FFP, should only be given to cirrhotic patients as part of the massive transfusion protocol in cases of profound hypotension, as “patients with cirrhosis rarely have true enzymatic hypocoagulability, and FFP may worsen bleeding due to over-resuscitation and dilution of coagulation factors.”

For patients on VKAs to prevent stroke in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who require reversal, 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) is preferred to fresh frozen plasma (FFP) because of the rapidity of INR reduction (Conditional recommendation, very low-quality evidence).
