LOINC description : Autologous hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) transplant is used to treat hematologic
malignancies in children, adolescents, and young adults. The dose of CD34 cells in
the transplant, calculated as the number of CD34 cells infused per kg of the transplant
recipient's body weight, is associated with the success of engraftment and patient
morbidity and mortality, with higher doses yielding better clinical outcomes. The
minimum CD34 cell dose to achieve fast and effective engraftment is 2-5 10 6 cells/kg.
