Prophylactic oral vancomycin was associated with reduced Clostridium difficile infection in allogeneic stem cell transplant patients. No differences in hospital‐acquired infections, mortality, GVHD, or rehospitalization were observed. It is a low‐cost, effective preventative strategy, though further prospective studies are needed to confirm safety and ...

Abstract Background Large‐volume leukocytapheresis is time consuming. The upper limit of the inlet flow rate is determined by the inlet: anticoagulant (AC) ratio and can be changed by combining the AC with heparin. Here, we devised a protocol to increase the AC ratio using a highly concentrated sodium citrate solution without heparin.
