Quick question.
Can you y-site FFP or platelets and PRBC through a peripheral IV. I can't find anything that says no. To me, logic says yes because they are both blood components and should be comparable, but nurses tend to freak out when they see something new or unusual, so I thought I would ask on here before asking my fellow ICU nurses. I have done it in CVICU but CVICU is a different world. I have also done it in mass tramsfusions before. But let's just say I'm a normal transfusion situation.
