Réinjection du greffon : recommandations de la Société francophone de greffe de moelle et de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC)

Abstract

JACIE (Joint Accreditation Committee ISTC EBMT) regulations and standards impose a quality and safety requirement for graft reinjection by nurses. However, the standards do not provide a step-by-step graft reinjection procedure. Because of high medical team turnover, the opening of new transplant centers, and continual questions from colleagues trying to decipher the JACIE standards, the need for a specific procedure goes without saying. We collected graft reinjection procedures from each SFGM-TC center that participated in our survey, thus creating an inventory of the different steps that make up graft reinjection. In addition to reviewing the main regulatory texts and JACIE standards, we sought advice from medical and cellular therapy experts. We observed that most centers use a mix of practices and some unjustified practices. In some transplant units, it is still standard practice to defrost cell therapy products in the transplant unit. Caregivers are aware of the need for a rigorous application of the regulatory requirements and are willing to administer a procedure that provides specific steps for each stage of the process. In this workshop, we questioned each stage of the graft reinjection procedure, which helped us define clear methods of implementation. In the form of a checklist, we offer bone marrow and stem cell transplant units a step-by-step procedure.
