The device is a compact, portable apheresis device weighing 27 Kg. It can be easily taken to the ward where the patient is hospitalised (especially intensive care) and the procedure can be performed.
The device has the ability to collect all blood products separately and together and also to perform all cerapathic procedures:
- Platelet collection
- Platelet + Plasma collection
- Platelet + Erythrocyte Collection
- Platelet + Erythrocyte + Plasma Collection
- Collection of two units of washed erythrocytes from a single donor (especially for thalassaemia patients, in this set the erythrocytes are washed with isotonic to remove plasma and filtered separately)
- Plasma collection
- Plasma Replacement
- Erythrocyte Replacement
- Peripheral Stem Cell collection
- Leukocyte - Platelet - Lymphocyte - Granulocyte reduction
The device can perform all operations from a single arm. Advantages of single arm operation:
- It is comfortable as the donor is connected to the device with only one arm.
- In double-arm devices, the donor must have good veins in both arms, so the donor is rejected, while in our single-arm device, the donor is not rejected for this reason.
- In case of any vascular problem, the procedure is continued by trying from the second arm without wasting the set and donor. Donor and set are cancelled in double arm devices.
Because the device has a high collection efficiency:
- It achieves high product quality by processing less blood.
- Since it works with less blood, the amount of anticoagulant used is lower.
- Since it works with less blood, it works for a very short time longer than devices operating with two arms.
The device is manufactured using the latest technology. Safety is always kept at the highest level.
The device is easy and practical to use. In case of a problem, the device informs the user and guides the user by providing help options. Platelet protocol of the device is completely in Turkish. All usage information and help messages are displayed on the screen in Turkish.
Pall Log4 leucocyte filter for platelets and erythrocytes is included in the sets. These products do not need to be filtered separately when given to the patient.
The device has CE and FDA certificates.
