Yes, as long as the recipient is not a female of child-bearing age or someone who has developed an rh antibody due to a prior infusion of rh positive blood products. In the past, it was not uncommon for platelets to contain a little blood because the washing techniques were not as good as they are today. It's the blood that causes the rh complications, and not the platelets themselves. Sometimes it's unavoidable, and rh positive platelets have to be given to an rh negative patient, even at child-bearing age. In those cases, the doctor may decide to administer Rhogam to the recipient, prior to transfusion. The Rhogam attaches itself to the rh positive red blood cells, that might be contaminating the platelets, and this allows those cells to be removed from the recipients circulation and they will not form rh antibodies. These days, washing techniques for platelets are much better and the chances of rh complications are very low. Doctors don't generally like to take even the slightest chance with females of child-bearing age.
