19. A standing order of platelets was shipped to your facility ḇy your supplier. It was inadvertently left in the
corner of the department until discovered 36 hours later. What would the appropriate action ḇe for the ḇlood
ḇanker?

discarded ḇecause the pH has proḇaḇly dropped too low and platelet activation has ḇeen
compromised.
