**Summary** The interaction between platelets and leukocytes plays an important role in inflammatory and thrombotic processes. We investigated whether the volatile anaesthetics sevoflurane and desflurane alter the formation of plateletβleukocyte aggregates and the expression of Pβselectin on platele
Background: Platelet-leukocyte aggregates (PLAs) may be important in thrombotic and inflammatory disease states, but accurate assessment of PLA formation in vivo is hampered by the propensity for in vitro artefacts caused by sample manipulation. A whole blood flow cytometric assay for circulating PL
