  • Title: Granulocyte transfusions for pediatric patients and the establishment of national treatment guidelines and donor registry.
    Author: Vrielink H, Meijer B, van't Ende E, Ball LM, Brand A, Zwaginga JJ.
    Journal: Transfus Apher Sci; 2009 Aug; 41(1):73-6. PubMed ID: 19525147.
    Abstract:
    G-CSF/dexamethasone stimulated donor derived granulocyte transfusion (GTX) has been shown in non-randomized studies to be a useful co-therapy in immune-compromised patients unresponsive to conventional antimicrobial treatments. Reports of GTX are however usually single institution adult experiences. Substantiated pediatric data, other than in neonates, is less common.
