The infusion time should not exceed 4 hours. Platelets, plasma and cryoprecipitate generally are transfused at a rate of 10 ml per minute. In order for a patient to receive maximum benefit platelets need to be transfused rapidly to get control of bleeding.
An infusion rate of 17mL/min allows an entire unit of blood to be transfused in 30 minutes. The usual recommended time period ranges between 1.5 and 2 hours per unit. The maximum time period allowed for infusion of a single unit of blood is 4 hours. In emergency situations, the infusion rate is not as well established.
