After the final return, the touch screen displays the Procedure
Information Screen. The task zone features the animated
processing icon. This indicates the instrument is automatically
processing the red cell product by adding red cell preservation
solution and pumping the mixture into the red cell storage
containers.
A ratio of approximately 1 mL of red cell preservation solution is
added to 2.1 mL of absolute red blood cells.
Typical Procedure Information
WARNING: If an alarm or interruption occurs while the
system is processing the red cell product after procedure
completion, a small amount of blood components may enter
the red cell preservation solution container. Dispose of all
potentially biohazardous materials per standard operating
procedures.
CAUTION: If processing is terminated by the operator, an
adequate amount of red cell preservation solution may not have
been added to the red cell product to support 42 day storage.
Disposition of the product should be left to the medical director.
