Usage Information:
Rejuvesol ® Solution is intended only for the extracorporeal rejuvenation of a RBC. It should never be directly administered to Humans. Rejuvesol ® Solution must not be added to whole blood because the additional plasma may reduce the effectiveness of the rejuvenation process. Immediately after rejuvenation, RBC must either be washed via an approved protocol prior to transfusion or glycerolized and frozen. RBC which have been rejuvenated, glycerolized, and frozen must be deglycerolized via an approved protocol prior to transfusion. RBC rejuvenated before 6 days of storage may achieve 2,3-DPG levels in excess of 2 times normal and ATP levels in excess of 1.5 times normal. 5,6 In patients with reduced arterial blood p0 2 of less than 40 torr, the use of RBC rejuvenated before 6 days of storage are contraindicated because their high 2,3-DPG levels and low oxygen affinity may impair proper oxygenation of the red blood cells in the lung. 7Rejuvenated RBC are further processed prior to transfusion to remove the un-used portion of rejuvesol ® Solution, by-products of the rejuvenation process, and any other potential storage-related impurities in rejuvesol ® Solution. Based on the concentration of the residual inosine in rejuvenated RBC that are either washed or deglycerolized, the average washout of inosine was calculated to be > 97.4%. A literature search for potential toxicity associated with the ingredients that comprise rejuvesol ® Solution, including potential metabolites, was conducted. 23 This report concludes that no theoretical contraindications would be associated with the transfusion of a single unit of unwashed, rejuvenated RBC that would contain amounts of pyruvate, inosine, adenine, phosphate, hypoxanthine, uric acid, and lactate that exceed reference values (excluding lactate) as these substances are naturally metabolized and/or are excreted. 23The maximum number of properly processed rejuvenated RBC that can be transfused to a single recipient over their entire lifetime has not been determined.
