Brand Names:

Rejuvesol

DESCRIPTION Rejuvesol ® Red Blood Cell Processing Solution ( rejuvesol ® Solution) is a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution of sodium pyruvate, inosine, adenine, dibasic sodium phosphate, and monobasic sodium phosphate in water for injection intended only for use in the extracorporeal rejuvenation of a unit of red blood cell concentrate (RBC).

Overview

DESCRIPTION Rejuvesol ® Red Blood Cell Processing Solution ( rejuvesol ® Solution) is a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution of sodium pyruvate, inosine, adenine, dibasic sodium phosphate, and monobasic sodium phosphate in water for injection intended only for use in the extracorporeal rejuvenation of a unit of red blood cell concentrate (RBC).

Uses

INDICATION AND USAGE Rejuvesol ® Solution is intended only to be used as an in vitro processing solution for the rejuvenation of a unit of RBC. RBC may be rejuvenated after storage in CPD (non-leukocyte reduced), CPDA-1, (non-leukocyte reduced), CPD/ADSOL ® (CPD/AS-1 leukocyte reduced), or CP2D/Nutricel ® (CP2D/AS-3, leukocyte reduced). The final concentration of ATP and 2,3-DPG achieved after rejuvenation will vary depending on the number of days of liquid storage at 1-6 °C prior to rejuvenation. NOTE: For simplicity, RBC stored in CPD (non-leukocyte reduced), CPDA-1 (non-leukocyte reduced), CPD/ADSOL ® (CPD/AS-1 leukocyte reduced), CP2D/Nutricel ® (CP2D/AS-3, leukocyte reduced) are referred to hereafter as CPD, CPDA-1, CPD/AS-1, and CP2D/AS-3, respectively.

Warnings

WARNING AND CONTRAINDICATIONS Rejuvesol ® Solution is intended only for the extracorporeal rejuvenation of a RBC. It should never be directly administered to Humans. Rejuvesol ® Solution must not be added to whole blood because the additional plasma may reduce the effectiveness of the rejuvenation process. Immediately after rejuvenation, RBC must either be washed via an approved protocol prior to transfusion or glycerolized and frozen. RBC which have been rejuvenated, glycerolized, and frozen must be deglycerolized via an approved protocol prior to transfusion. RBC rejuvenated before 6 days of storage may achieve 2,3-DPG levels in excess of 2 times normal and ATP levels in excess of 1.5 times normal.

Storage

STORAGE It is recommended that the product be stored at 15 - 25 °C (59 - 77 °F). Protect from freezing. Exposure to temperatures near or below freezing may produce a white precipitate in the solution; this precipitate will dissolve upon brief incubation at room temperature. Alternatively, the product may be warmed at 37 °C for up to one hour in a dry air incubator to dissolve the precipitate.
