Nucleated cell dose in hematopoietic progenitor cell transfusion [#/mass] per recipient body mass

Nuc cell dose HPC per recip body mass

Definition

  • The total nucleated cell count (TNC) in hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) is an important predictor of engraftment and clinical outcomes. A TNC of at least 2.5 × 10^7 per kilogram of transplant recipient's body weight is associated with more rapid time to engraftment, decreased risk for graft failure, and improved overall survival.
