Uses

1.1 Hypovolemia

For restoration and maintenance of circulating blood volume where volume deficiency is demonstrated and colloid use is appropriate.

1.2 Hypoalbuminemia

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated for severe albumin deficiency caused by illness or active bleeding. When albumin deficiency results from excessive protein loss, the effect of albumin administration will be temporary unless the underlying disorder is reversed.

1.3 Prevention of Central Volume Depletion after Paracentesis due to Cirrhotic Ascites

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated for maintenance of cardiovascular function following the removal of large volumes of ascitic fluid due to cirrhosis [1, 2].

1.4 Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS)

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated as a plasma expander in the fluid management in of severe forms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) [3, 4].

1.5 Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated in conjunction with diuretics to correct fluid volume overload associated with ARDS [5].

1.6 Burns

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated after > 24 hours post burn in patients experiencing severe albumin depletion in order to favor edema re-absorption [6].

1.7 Hemodialysis

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated in patients undergoing long term dialysis or for those patients who are fluid-overloaded and cannot tolerate substantial volumes of salt solution for therapy of shock or hypotension [7].

1.8 Cardiopulmonary Bypass

KEDBUMIN™ is indicated in cardiopulmonary bypass procedures as part of the priming fluids [8, 9].

Other Information

KEDBUMIN™ is a sterile, aqueous solution for single dose intravenous administration. The product contains 0.25 g per mL human albumin and is prepared by cold ethanol fractionation from pooled human plasma obtained from venous blood at FDA-licensed facilities located in the USA. Intermediate source material (albumin paste) is obtained from a U.S. licensed manufacturer. The colloid osmotic effect of KEDBUMIN™ is approximately four times that of blood plasma.

KEDBUMIN™ is a clear, slightly viscous liquid, with a yellow, amber, or green tint. The productis stabilized by the addition of 0.08 mmol sodium caprylate and 0.08 mmol sodium acetyltryptophan per gram of albumin. Additionally, each liter of material contains 130-160 mEq of sodium ion and ≤ 200 µg of aluminum. The product contains no preservatives.

KEDBUMIN™ is heated for ten hours at 60°C. The KEDBUMIN manufacturing process results in viral reduction in in vitro studies (see table below). These reductions are achieved through a combination of process steps including Cohn fractionation and final container heat treatment.
