VO2 Max: In Vivo Model for Functional Red Cell Testing. Can RECESS be Explained?
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Transfusion of 7-day stored red blood cells, Transfusion of 28-day stored red blood cells, and 1 other intervention for Healthy. Completed, enrolled 42 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a single-center, randomized, partially blinded study to determine whether 42-day old red blood cells (RBCs) deliver oxygen as effectively as 7-day old RBCs and also to determine whether transfusion with 28-day old RBCs is non-inferior to 7-day old RBCs with respect to oxygen delivery. In this study, subjects will be randomized to be transfused with 2 units of autologous (one's own) RBCs that are either 7-, 28-, or 42-days old. Endpoints include changes in exercise duration and VO2 max (test of oxygen consumption/delivery) between groups.
