Leukoreduced Packed Red Blood Cells are prepared using specialized filtration techniques that remove white blood cells and significantly reduce the WBC count. This component is especially beneficial for patients with febrile non-hemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTR) and helps reduce the risk of CMV transmission in patients requiring repeated blood transfusions.
