The study purpose is to evaluate laboratory professionals' perception of the effectiveness of education methods in preparing laboratory professionals to understand, implement, and educate other members of the patient care team on the technology and product/processing changes involved in implementing Pathogen Reduction Technology (PRT) treated products, specifically PRT treated platelets. This is important because PRTs role is continuing to grow and develop in transfusion medicine.
