About Best Practices Of Apheresis In Hematopoietic Cell
Product Description In this book, world-renowned experts in the field of hematopoietic cell transplantation examine a range of issues and controversies relating to apheresis, with the aim of identifying current trends and best practices. Readers will find up-to-date guidance on donor evaluation, CD34+ cell mobilization strategies, options and selection of apheresis device, anticoagulation techniques in apheresis, the role of prediction algorithms in determining procedure eligibility and length, and the prevention and management of complications. Applications of apheresis devices in the processing of bone marrow grafts are discussed, and detailed attention is devoted to the indications and rationale for therapeutic apheresis procedures, with individual chapters focusing on therapeutic plasma exchange and immunoadsorption, red cell exchange, and extracorporeal photopheresis. Finally, the applications of apheresis in pediatric donors and in resource-limiting environments are considered. This book, featuring numerous helpful tables, algorithms, and figures, will be of high practical value for residents, fellows, faculty members and other healthcare personnel involved in hematopoietic cell transplantation.

About the Author Anand Padmanabhan is Medical Director at the BloodCenter of Wisconsin and Associate Professor at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, WI. He completed his medical education at Thanjavur Medical College in India, followed by graduate studies (MA, PhD) in biochemistry at Brown University and residency and fellowship training at Columbia University and the Institute for Transfusion Medicine/University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, respectively. He also serves as Medical director of the Hematopoietic stem cell collection (apheresis) arm of the Medical College of Wisconsin’s HSCT program. He has interest and experience in clinical trials involving use of new apheresis devices, and in the optimization of stem cell collection for the purpose of facilitating HSCTs. He also has translational research interests in the area of immunologically challenging solid organ transplants and in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis. Dr. Padmanabhan has published extensively in the area of apheresis use in cellular collections and is passionate about optimizing care for both patients and donors. Syed A.
