Abstract
A plasma bag support rack is described which is useful for suspending frozen plasma bags in a water bath. The support rack includes a main cross member that has two pairs of vertically oriented hooks projecting downward. The cross member has rubber coated ends to prevent slippage during thawing. Frozen plasma bags are suspended by the support rack hooks from the support holes at the top of the bags. The rubber coated cross member ends are then seated on the top edge of a water bath during plasma bag thawing. The support rack holds the entry ports of frozen plasma bags out of the bacteria contaminated water which is commonly found in plasma thawing water baths. This support rack provides a means for safe and rapid thawing of frozen plasma bags.
