Most of the instructions in this manual pertain to all centers and
regions regardless of what type of disposable kit is used, but
some instructions only pertain to functionally closed kits or to
regions where appropriate regulatory approvals or clearances
have been granted.
The A
Component Collection System Operator's Manual
LYX
supports instrument model numbers 4R5707 and 4R5725. Some
collection procedures presented in this manual may not be
available depending on regional approvals or clearances from the
appropriate health regulating agencies.
The disposable kit descriptions used throughout the manual refer
to either a closed or functionally closed kit. The closed kit has all
solutions and containers pre-attached. Adsol (AS-1) is the red cell
preservation solution used with a closed kit.
The functionally closed kit is manufactured with a spike and
microbial filter on the saline line of the disposable. The spike is
used to connect saline solution to the disposable. All other
solutions and containers are pre-attached. SAG-M is the red cell
preservation solution used with the functionally closed kit.
The following list of words or titles may be used interchangeably,
but to simplify verbal communication between all regions, the
bolded words or titles will be used in this manual.
• 2RBC-LR ALYX Red Cell Procedure - the
collection of two units of red cells automatically
pumped through the filter to reduce the amount of
white cells in the final product(s).
• leukoreduction or leukodepletion – removal of
white cells from a product.
There may be procedures and/or procedural parameters with
certain restrictions depending on the Administrative settings for
the instrument that may or may not be available depending on
country regulations.
Instructions that only pertain to the use of functionally closed
kits or specific regions will be highlighted and placed in gray
boxes. An example of this would be:
WARNING: Use only 500 mL saline containers. Do not
attach or spike into another saline container during a
procedure.
