EMPTY RBCs TO
BLUE/RED LINE
(RETURN Option)
“Empty RBCs to Blue Line” directs the CS5+ to send a bowl of washed RBCs to
the blue line and the reinfusion bag after a wash cycle has been completed. This
is the default value. If “Empty RBCs to Red Line” is chosen, the CS5+ will send a
full bowl of washed RBCs to the red line. An additional parameter choice will be
displayed if the red line is chosen.
VOLUME TO
RESERVOIR/
CIRCUIT
This selection notifies the volume accounting algorithm of the Cell Saver 5+ to
increase or decrease the Volume Processed and Reinfusion Volume
appropriately.
For example:
If Volume to Reservoir is chosen, the processed volume will decrease as the
blood is returned to the reservoir for reprocessing.
If Volume to Circuit is chosen, the Processed Volume and Reinfusion Volume will
increase as the blood is returned directly to the patient via the extracorporeal
circuit.
In MODIFY, the destination of the returned cells may be adjusted. The default
value in the CS5+ is to pump the volume to the reservoir.
Warning: A safety/warning device should be used for the detection and
elimination of gaseous bubbles when returning cells to the patient via the
extracorporeal circuit.
To enable the “Empty RBCs to Red Line” option for automatic processing the
operator must enter the MODIFY section when the system is in STANDBY. The
following screen is displayed in STANDBY:
