Official title
A Pilot Study on the Impact of Rejuvenated Autologous Blood Transfusion on VO2 Max in Healthy Subjects
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
To compare the physiologic benefits of rejuvenated RBCs (rejRBCs) to standards RBCs (PRBCs), we will emulate critical conditions by safely maximizing stress on the cardiovascular system, in an elective, feasible volunteer study. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) will be measured in an anemic, post-donation, pre-transfusion state, and also after transfusing 14-day-old, autologous blood randomized to standard storage or standard storage with rejuvenation. We hypothesize that transfusion of standard PRBCs is less effective at increasing oxygen delivery (measured by VO2max) compared with transfusion of rejRBCs.
