Thank you to all who were and are involved in the fraction guide- it will certainly be a great resource for the site!

Could someone help clarify one point on the chart for me? Our understanding about platelet gel is that it is a procedure that is performed with the patient's own blood. We have checked with the blood bank at our hospital and collection agencies in the area and none offer allogeneic platelet gel.

In our area, that would qualify platelet gel as a procedure and not a fraction. Is it different at hospitals in other parts of the country (or world)?
