An autologous transplant uses the patient's own bone marrow for stem cells. This is done after any cancerous cells are treated with chemotherapy.
Transfusion of your own blood (autologous) is the safest method but requires advance planning and not all patients are eligible.
Autologous blood (from the patient) is the safest blood available for transfusion, since there is no risk of disease transmission
There seem to be several, but the most common are: autologous blood transfusion or antibiotic therapy.
Autologous donation and transfusion.
Autologous blood (from the patient)
When patients donate their own blood for surgery, it is called autologous blood donation. This process allows patients to store their own blood ahead of a scheduled surgery, which can be transfused back to them if needed during or after the procedure. Autologous donation reduces the risk of transfusion-related complications and is particularly beneficial for patients with specific blood type concerns or those with a history of transfusion reactions.
taking blood from a healthy person and giving it to another person who needs it
Risks associated with autologous blood transfusion include transfusion reaction if an allogeneic blood transfusion was inadvertently given and transmission of infectious agents if the blood became contaminated.
PABD is generally indicated when there is a reasonable chance that a blood transfusion will become necessary, when the patient is in adequate health to donate blood, and when there is sufficient preoperative time for the patient to donate.
in case of homologous doping method: * the athlete may contract blood borne diseases, * transfusion reactions may develop, * he/she may develop increased transfusion sensitivity. In case of autologous doping method: * the athlete showa decrease in efficacy of training when blood is drawn out.
