Random Donor Platelets (RDP) are one of the most essential blood components. RDP is prepared from one unit of Whole Blood donated by a healthy voluntary donor. Through centrifugation process, platelets are separated and concentrated. One unit of RDP contains approximately 5.5 x 10^10 platelets in 50-70 ml plasma. It is also called Platelet Concentrate. Unlike SDP which comes from one donor via apheresis machine, RDP is from a random donor's whole blood donation. At Uttarakhand Blood Centre Dehradun, every RDP unit is NAT tested and screened for HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Syphilis and Malaria to ensure 100% safety.
Doctors prescribe RDP transfusion in Dehradun in following conditions:
1. RDP for Dengue in Dehradun: Most common use. Dengue fever causes severe drop in platelet count (thrombocytopenia). When platelets fall below 20,000/cumm or patient has bleeding, RDP transfusion is life-saving.
2. Thrombocytopenia (Low Platelet Count): When bone marrow is not producing enough platelets.
3. Cancer & Chemotherapy Patients: Chemotherapy destroys platelets. RDP helps prevent bleeding.
4. Major Surgeries & Trauma: To control bleeding during major operations like cardiac surgery.
5. Bone Marrow Failure & Aplastic Anemia
