Therapeutic apheresis is a treatment modality that processes whole blood through medical technologies for the purpose of separating it into components and removing identified pathological cellular or plasma components.[1][2][3] Pediatric therapeutic apheresis treatments includes plasma exchange, red cell exchange/depletion, stem cell collections, leukodepletion and plasma exchange with secondary plasma device.[2][3][4] There are considerations to be made when performing apheresis in pediatric patients, with the understanding that the apheresis technology and equipment used to perform adult apheresis are also used for pediatric apheresis.[1][2][3][4] Additionally, pediatric patients require advance monitoring and clinical accommodations, due to their smaller body mass and immature body system functions, to safely perform treatments.[1][3][5]
This article addresses common considerations of apheresis when performed in the pediatric population: Central venous access, extracorporeal volume, electrolyte imbalances, monitoring of pediatric patient during treatments, as well as, adverse events and psychosocial considerations.[1]
