QUALITY IN BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTATION

Leave a comment

Bone marrow transplants are now routinely carried out worldwide to treat people with cancer and other disorders of the blood and immune system and are a prime example of a successful stem cell therapy. Stem cells from bone marrow, peripheral blood, or umbilical cord blood are used in transplantation procedures. From the first successful bone marrow transplant involving identical twins in the late 1950s to cutting edge research of today, the emphasis on quality has evolved and has led to the establishment of standards and regulations. This presentation will focus on a brief history of the development of bone marrow transplantation accreditation standards and regulations.
