The donor has been identified as a match and agrees to donate hematopoieteic stem cells…
• What are the resources of stem cells?
• What do we expect from donors?
• Why we can’t use all donors? (Eligibility)
• How does the donation impact the donor?
• What do the donors expect from us?
• Ethical aspects (in Saudi Arabia)
• Social aspects(in Saudi Arabia)

STEM CELL DONORS…
Can either be…
• Related matched donors
• Unrelated matched donors
• Umbilical Cord blood units
And recently…
• Mismatched related donors (Haplo-identical donors)
![Page 4: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The primary goal is to determine if the donor is in good health in order to:
• Protect the donor from the risk of damage to his/her own health
• Protect the recipient from transmissible diseases
DONORS’ ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
![Page 5: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
DONORS’ SELECTION CRITERIA
• HLA compatibility – many (most) patients have a single best donor
• Gender
• Age
• Results of infectious disease testing (CMV)
• Previous antigen exposure
• Weight
• Type of stem cell donation
![Page 6: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
CARE BEFORE THE COLLECTION PROCEDURE
• Health questionnaire
• Careful medical history
• Laboratory tests/EKG/Chest X-Ray.
• A comprehensive health screening.
• physical exam: focusing on conditions that might increase risk of known adverse events.
![Page 7: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
PHYSICAL EXAM
• Focus on neurologic, respiratory, cardiovascular systems
• Bone marrow harvest: oral airway, musculoskeletal

![Page 9: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
CARE DURING THE COLLECTION PROCEDURE
Bone marrow harvest:

![Page 10: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
CARE DURING MOBILIZATION & COLLECTION PROCEDURE:
Peripheral blood stem cell harvest:
• G-CSF treatment and complications
• Apheresis and complications
• Need for central venous access (0-10%, F>M)
• No need for blood transfusion
![Page 11: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
RISKS & ADVERSE EVENTS ASSOCIATED WITH DONATION:
• Donation is a reasonably safe procedure but adverse events can occur.
• Life-threatening adverse events occur in 0.3-0.4% of donors.
• Odds of dying – <1/10,000
• Most donors report symptoms – important that donors have reasonable expectations.
• Types of symptoms depend on method of collection (BM vs. PB)
![Page 12: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
RISK FACTORS FOR SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS
• Un-identified risk factors

SYMPTOMS POST PBSC DONATION:
![Page 20: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SYMPTOMS DURING MOBILIZATION:
![Page 21: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
RARE EVENTS WITH G-CSF MOBILIZATION
• Splenic rupture – 5 cases
• Flare of autoimmune disorders
• Inflammatory eye disorders
• Precipitation of Sickle Cell Anemia or complex sickle cell crisis
• Prolonged neutropenia
![Page 22: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
LONG TERM EFFECTS OF G-CSF
• Theoretical concern for development of
hematologic malignancy:
– In cases with Kostmann’s patients, after
12 years of G-CSF treatment 8% risk of
progression to MDS/AML
![Page 23: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
ETHICAL ISSUES:
• Sibling donors
- Unwillingness to donate
• Older donors
- Limited data on safety
- Consider co-morbidity
• Donor health
- Weigh the chance to cure the patient vs. the
donor risk.
![Page 24: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ETHICAL ISSUES:
• Pediatric Donors: - Parental consent - Consider Psychosocial issues - Limited Data available about the safety - Consider that life threatening complications rate similar to adults • Donors as research subjects: - Donor genes/donor cells - Experimental transplantations
![Page 25: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
SOCIAL ISSUES:
• Female/married donors
• Religious consideration
• Interruption of daily activities
• Misconceptions about donation
- Paralysis
- Infertility
- Disease transmission
![Page 26: DONORS: The Silent Heroes](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071805/62d403eae66ef2635e35df58/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
SUMMARY:
• HSC donation is safe procedure
• All donors must be carefully evaluated and fully informed of potential complications.
• Serious adverse events are rare.
• PBSC donation is increasing
• Long term follow up after donation is necessary.

If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he does, it must be by what he gives.
