What is the typical volume of cryoprecipitate?

The typical volume of cryoprecipitate is indeed around 20-40 mL. Cryoprecipitate is a blood product derived from plasma that contains a high concentration of clotting factors, particularly fibrinogen, Factor VIII, and von Willebrand factor. When preparing cryoprecipitate, it is typically produced from a single unit of fresh frozen plasma (FFP), and the volume that can be harvested varies, but generally, it falls within this range.

This specific volume is significant in clinical settings, especially when used for managing coagulopathies or during surgical procedures where there is a risk of bleeding. Knowing the usual delivery volume helps healthcare providers administer an appropriate amount of this critical clotting factor concentrate, ensuring effective hemostatic management in patients.
