The effects of recombinant human erythropoietin on autologous blood donation in rheumatoid arthritis patients with anaemia.
OBJECTIVES The effect of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) treatment on autologous blood donation was evaluated in anaemic patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) undergoing total joint replacement surgery. METHODS A total of 56 total knee or hip joint replacement operations were performed in the knee or hip joint in 36 anaemic RA patients (hemoglobin (Hb) concentration < 11.0 g/dl]. ...
متن کاملAutologous blood donation
Although preoperative autologous blood donation is employed in elective surgery, this is declining because of the increasingly safe allogeneic blood supply. However, it continues to be used because of the public's perception of allogeneic blood risks and increasing blood shortages. Patients may donate a unit of blood (450 +/- 45 ml) as often as twice weekly, up to 72 hours before surgery. Preop...
متن کاملEfficacy of recombinant human erythropoietin therapy started one month after autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
On day 30 after autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT), 20 patients were randomized to receive either erythropoietin at a dose of 500 U/kg/week s.c. (Epo group) or no treatment (control group). After 3 weeks, hemoglobin (p<0.0001) and serum transferrin receptor (p<0.0001) concentrations were higher in the Epo group. Hb response (+2 g/dL) was achieved in 100% vs 28% (p<0.0...
متن کاملThe effect of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) on blood cells of adult and immature rats
Human recombinant erythropoietin is a synthetic hormone for treatment of some kinds of anemia. In this study, the effect of this hormone was investigated on blood cell changes in adult and immature rats. For this purpose, the hormone was administered at doses of 50, 100, and 200 IU/Kg (s.c.) twice a week for a period of 6 weeks. Then, the number of red blood cells (RBC), subtypes of white blood...
متن کاملEffects of Recombinant Human Erythropoietin (rHuEpo) on the Blood Cells and Hematopoiesis in Spleen of Rats
Recombinant human erythropoietin is a glycoprotein hormone that stimulates erythropoiesis. In clonogenic assays of hematopoietic progenitors, high concen-trations of erythropoietin (Epo) increase CFU-E and diminish the number of granulocytes formed per culture plate. Fetal progenitors are more sensitive to these effects of Epo than progenitors from adults. We administered doses 50, 100, 200 IU/...
