P/N 53063-50, Manual Revision: B
Automatic Operation: Cell Salvage
5-15
An example of the display that will appear when the system trips into RETURN is:
4. After the bowl empties, the system either initiates another FILL mode if the
level in the reservoir is above the preset level or the system returns to the
STANDBY mode.
NO WASH
Option
If minimum turn-around time on concentrated cells is a higher priority than
washing the cells, such as in an emergency, or the cells are being
hemoconcentrated for return to the extracorporeal circuit, the physician may
request that the operator omit the WASH mode, thus reducing the processing
time to the length of the FILL-EMPTY modes.
Warning: The no wash option should only be selected after the physician has
performed a careful assessment of the risk/benefit ratio of washing cells versus
not washing cells, and has determined, based on his/her own medical
judgement, that return of the cells without processing through the wash mode
is in the best interest of the patient.
Note: The NO wash option is retained on a per procedure basis only.
The WASH mode may be bypassed by entering the MODIFY section when the
system is in STANDBY. The following screen is displayed in STANDBY:
