Predicting Successful Hematopoietic Stem Cell Collection in Healthy Allogeneic Donors.

Introduction: Collection of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) from healthy donors is a well-established process. We aimed to identify factors predictive of successful CD34+ PBSC collection and established a formula capable of predicting CD34+ cell yield.

Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 588 healthy adult donors (median age 29 years, range 18-69 years) at our institution from 2017 to 2022.
