Long-term red blood cell exchange in children with sickle cell disease: Manual or automatic?
چکیده انگلیسی

Little information is available on erythrocytapheresis in children with sickle cell disease, and no comparison has ever been made with manual exchanges in a long-term blood exchange program. We matched a historical cohort of five patients who received 60 erythrocytapheresis procedures with five who received 124 manual exchanges. Long-term erythrocytapheresis was feasible and well-tolerated even in children of low weight. In a long-term approach, automated exchanges were more efficient in maintaining a low HbS level, and exchanges could be spaced out. This approach appears especially useful in the cases where the HbS level must be maintained below 30%.
