3 Step: Beginning of Treatment. Stem cell harvesting

3 step beginning of treatment

Harvesting of stem cells

Collection of stem cells (1-3 days).
To rebuild immune system, we need to collect more than 2 million hematopoietic stem cells per kg of body weight (>2 x 106/kg/b.w. CD34+ HSC).

Stem cells collection (harvesting) takes 5-6 hours (7-8 am – 1-2 pm).

Autologous stem cell harvesting is performed by Haemonetics MCS+ multicomponent collections system or Spectra Optia Apheresis System.
