Apheresis granulocyte collection and transfusion efficacy / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To analyze the safety of apheresis granulocyte(AG) collection from blood donors mobilized by G-CSF and apheresis granulocyte transfusion efficacy in patients. 【Methods】 The blood routine results, collection process and follow-up of blood donors mobilized by G-CSF before and after AG collection were collected to analyze the safety of AG collection, and the blood routine results, clinical symptom improvement and treatment outcome of patients before and after AG transfusion were collected to analyze the transfusion efficacy. 【Results】 A total of 27 blood donors donated 29 U AG, with collection time at (229±20)min, circulating blood volume at (9 890±1 107)mL, and the dosage of anticoagulant at (1 002±97)mL.Two blood donors had adverse reactions to blood donation, and the AG collection was carried out after treatment.After G-CSF mobilization, WBC increased significantly from (5.61±1.06) ×109/L to (22.85±5.23) ×109/L, while RBC, Hb, Hct and Plt showed no significant change.The blood routine returned to the level before G-CSF mobilization 1-2 days after blood donation.No physical discomfort occurred during the one week after blood donation.Four patients with granulocyte deficiency complicated with multidrug-resistant bacterial infection, who failed to respond to antibiotic treatment, were transfused with 29 U AG, with no adverse reactions and no obvious change in blood routine, but the infection symptoms were improved significantly judged from clinical manifestation, bacterial culture results, temperature monitoring and CT examination, suggesting that the AG infusion was effective.Among the 4 patients, 1 was cured and discharged, 1 gave up treatment, 1 died of sepsis, and 1 died of multiple organ failure. 【Conclusion】 It is safe to collect AG from blood donors mobilized by G-CSF through blood cell separator, and the AG products basically meet the national quality requirements and the treatment needs.Sustained high-dose AG transfusion has a significant effect on infection control in patients with agranulocytosis combined with refractory multidrug-resistant bacterial or fungal infection.
