The Government of Ukraine has approved a resolution on the establishment of the State Information System for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation aimed at improving the efficiency of transplantation and donor selection.

Stem cell transplantation may be required for three types of diseases:

  • hematologic. For example, acute leukemia, multiple myeloma, plasma cell leukemia, Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma;
  • non-hematologic. For example, L amyloidosis or POEMS syndrome;
  • autoimmune.

It is noted that the most important thing in the search for a stem cell donor is the speed of of determining cellular relatedness. The functionality of the system will allow in the future, to search and form a donor-recipient pair more quickly, quickly exchange information and documents with other information systems.

The number of hematopoietic stem cell transplants is also growing.

We have done a lot, and We have done a lot and still have a lot to do. Today, we have made another step forward - the government has approved the regulations on the State Information System of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. of Hematopoietic Stem Cells Transplantation. The greater the number of registered potential donors, the greater chances for patients to recover. However, for the system to work, it is also important to develop a culture of bone marrow donation. The bone marrow from a donor is fully restored within a few weeks. Meanwhile, someone's life remains saved

said the Minister of Health of Ukraine Viktor Lyashko.

In addition, the implementation of this measure is provided for by the State Anti-Corruption Program for 2023-2025.
