Implementing Measures

• With all data and documents available, it becomes:

An evaluation of possible damage is made

Appropriate measures are taken

Disseminating information to all involved areas

and responsible

Close the case

And introduced SAE/SAR in BV Register

CLINICAL CASES

Avaluation of an Event

• Every event should be analyzed in: – Severity.– Imputability.– Impact.

16

Severity

17

Imputability

18

Impact Assessment• Step 1: assessing likelihood of occurrence/

recurrence of SAR/E:

19

Impact Assessment• Step 2: assessing Impact /Consequences of

SAR/E should it recur.

20

Impact Assessment• Step 3: Applying the Impact Matrix.

21

Impact Assessment• Step 4:• The response of a tissue or cell bank or a health authority to a specific

SAE/SAR should be proportionate to the potential impact as assessed by the matrix described.

• GREEN: The tissue or cell bank to manage the corrective and preventive actions and the health authority to file the report and keep a ‘watching brief’.

• YELLOW: Requires interaction between the tissue or cell bank and the health authority which may request an inspection that focuses on the SAE/SAR and corrective and preventive actions to be followed up, including evidence of effective recall, where necessary. Written communication to professionals working in the field might be appropriate.

• RED: Health authority will generally designate representatives to participate in developing or approving the corrective and preventive action plan, possibly a task force to address broader implications. Inspection, follow up and written comm

MADE-UP EXAMPLE

23

• A cornea recipient from United Kingdom developed vCJD symptoms five years after the graft. SAE or SAR??

• Do you need to measure severity and imputability?

• And the impact assessment tool?

24

• A cornea recipient from United Kingdom developed CJD symtomes five years after the graft. SAE or SAR?? SAR

• Do you need to measure severity and imputabilily? YES

• And the impact assessment tool? YES

25

Severity

26

Imputability

Impact Assessment• Step 1: assessing likelihood of occurrence/

recurrence of SAR/E:

Impact Assessment• Step 2: assessing Impact /Consequences of

SAR/E should it recur.

Impact Assessment• Step 3: Applying the Impact Matrix.

CASE 1

31

• A piece of bone identified as distal femur was sent to a hospital to be grafted. When the professionals opened the graft they discovered it was a proximal femur.

• What would you do?

• Is it a SAE or SAR?

32

• The tissue was grafted without any complication for the recipient.

• The label and package procedure of the tissue establishment was revised.

33

CASE 2

34

• Donor of heart valves and corneas. The first determination RPR was negative. But in a second determination, it was TPHA + (IgG +, IgM-). One cornea was already grafted.

• What would you do?

• SAE or SAR?

35

• Another analysis was performed, and it was also positive.

• It was a past infection.

36

• The corneas were kept in Optisol®

• No complication in the recipient.

37

CASE 3

38

• An haematologist reported a neumothorax while setting a central catheter in the subclavian for obtaining peripheral blood for an autologous HSCT.

• What would you do?

• SAE or SAR?

• Can the event be imputed to the procedure?

39

• The patient stayed in hospital where he received medical treatment and he recovered completely. The transplant was performed.

40

CASE 4

41

• Two tissue recipients presented a positive culture to Enterobacter cloacae in the exudate of the surgical wound.

• What would you do?

42

• In both cases the antiobiogramme was the same, and it was sensible to Gentamicina (an antibiotic used for cleaning the bones at the tissue bank).

• In one recipient the tissue culture was negative but the site culture wasn’t performed.

• In the other recipient no culture was performed.

• What else would you do?? SAE or SAR?

43

• They contacted the other professionals that had grafted tissues from the same donor. The cultures in all cases were negative.

• A bone piece stayed at the tissue establishment and it was sent to be analyzed. The result was also negative.

• They concluded that it was a surgery contamination.

44

• They concluded that it was a surgery contamination.

• Both recipients got antibiotic treatment and they recovered completely.

45

CASE 5

46

• The results of the anatomical pathology informed that a tissue donor had an adenocarcinoma.

• It was a heart valve and ocular donor.

• One cornea was grafted, the other was discarded due to quality reasons. Heart valves were stored at the bank.

• What would you do? SAE or SAR?

47

• Follow up of the recipient. He hasn’t developed any reaction.
