Definition Definition serious adverse reaction (SAR):
An unintended response, including a communicable disease, in the donor or in the recipient associated with the procurement or human application of tissues and cells that is fatal, life threatening, disabling, incapacitating or which results in, or prolongs, hospitalisation or morbidity.
Adverse reaction severity grade
Grade 0 | Nil: no harm, no risk, donor or patient not informed as there was no risk of harm |
Grade 1 | Non-serious: mild clinical/psychological consequences. No hospitalisation. No anticipated long term consequences/disability |
Grade 2 | Serious: hospitalisation or prolongation of hospitalisation and/or persistent or significant disability or incapacity, intervention to preclude permanent damage. Evidence of a serious transmitted infection. |
Grade 3 | Life-threatening: the living donor or recipient needed major medical or surgical intervention following donation or transfusion respectively to prevent death (vasopressors, intubation, IC admission). Evidence of life-threatening transmitted infection. |
Grade 4 | Death: following an adverse reaction after donation or transfusion. Grade 4 does not apply if the patient recovers to the clinical situation before transfusion and later dies of an unrelated cause. |
Adverse reaction imputability:
...
Definite, certain | Conclusive evidence beyond reasonable doubt for attribution to donation or infusion of the cell product |
Probably, likely | Evidence in favour of attribution to donation or infusion of the cell product |
Possible | Evidence is indeterminate |
Unlikely | Evidence is clearly in favour of attribution to alternative causes |
Excluded | Conclusive evidence beyond reasonable doubt for attributing adverse reaction to alternative causes |
Not Assessable | Insufficient data for imputability assessment |
Adverse reaction severity grade
The WMDA follows the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) guidance for severity assessment.
Grade 1 | Mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated. |
Grade 2 | Moderate; minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age appropriate instrumental ADL* |
Grade 3 | Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self care ADL** |
Grade 4 | Life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated |
Grade 5 | Death related to AE |
Activities of Daily Living (ADL)
*Instrumental ADL refer to preparing meals, shopping for groceries or clothes, using the telephone, managing money, etc.
**Self care ADL refer to bathing, dressing and undressing, feeding self, using the toilet, taking medications, and not bedridden.
Definition serious adverse event (SAE):
Any untoward occurrence associated with the procurement, storage and distrubution of tissues and cells that might lead to the transmission of a communicable disease, to death or life-greatening, disabling or incapacitating conditions for donors or patients or which might result in, or prolong, hospitalisation or morbidity.
Criteria for serious adverse event (SAE):
...
The event (could have) led to (an unforeseen) transmission of disease from donor to recipient
IMPACT MATRIX: The : A product of the the likelihood of recurrence and severity of (possible) reaction as a product of the likelihood of recurrence

potential) reaction on donor/patient, the system and the cell supply. A method to determine what the urgency is and what type of action is warranted.
Likelyhood of recurrence |
---|
1 | Rare | Difficult to believe it could happen again |
2 | Unlikely | Not expected to happen again |
3 | Possible | May occur occasionally |
4 | Likely | Expected to happen again but not persistent |
5 | Probably | Expected to happen again on many occasions |

0 | Insignificant | Nil | No effect | Insignificant |
1 | Minor | Non-serious | Minor change | Some applications postponed |
2 | Moderate | Serious | Damage for a short period | Many cancellations or postponements |
3 | Major | Life threatening | Major damage to system-significant delay to repair | Significant cancellations-importation required |
4 | Catastrophic | Death | System destroyed - need to rebuild | All allogeneic applications cancelled |

0-3 | The registry manages the corrective and preventive actions. Voluntary reporting to WMDA is encouraged. |
4-9 | Report to health authority which may request an inspection and corrective and preventive actions to be followed up. Reporting to WMDA is required for accredited registries. |
10-20 | Health authority will generally designate representatives to participate in corrective and preventive action plan. Reporting to WMDA is required for accredited registries within 24 hours after registry is informed. |
