ADSCs can be used after separation, cryopreservation, or cryopreservation and expansion processes. During these procedures, and regarding the medical devices used to separate SVF and ADSCs and to the stem cell facilities, variabilities in cell efficiency and clinical outcomes are observed. Continuous and standardized guidelines are proposed and reinforced through a flow chart during cell processing before delivery and in the point of care
