The WMDA has set up a central global reporting system for WMDA member organisations to report Serious (Product) Events and Adverse Reactions – S(P)EARs – to the WMDA.

Aaim

• To gain insight in the occurrence of serious events and adverse effects in relation to blood stem cell donation by unrelated donors and blood stem cell collection/processing from unrelated donors.

Purpose

• To collect and analyze information on recipient and donor serious adverse events (SAE) and reactions which affect donors and/or products from all WMDA stem cell
  donor registries and cord blood banks.

• To follow a rapid alert system for disseminating information on SAE/R to all members of the international community in contact with allogeneic donors and patients.
