Installing the Sequestration Disposables
Inspecting the
Disposable Sets
Always inspect disposable sets while removing them from the packaging.
1. Read the labeling on the disposable set to ensure it is the correct set for
the current procedure.
2. Ensure there are no kinks or twists in the tubing that could restrict the flow
of fluid.
3. Check that there are no missing caps or open connections.
4. Verify that there are no visible defects or particulate within the set.
Loading the
Reservoir and
Vacuum Line
The Sequestration protocol is only available prior to starting the first Fill phase
in the Cell Salvage procedure.
To prepare for the Sequestration protocol, load the reservoir and vacuum line:
1. Place the reservoir in the reservoir weigher so that the three filtered inlet
ports face the tubing support.
Note: The reservoir weigher should be no higher than 183 cm (72 in.) from the
floor.
2. Close the slide clamp on the reservoir drain port. Do not load the A&A line
at this time. Leave the port capped until ready to use.
3.
If using the Cell Saver Elite internal suction,
connect the filtered vacuum
line to both the vacuum port on the back of the device and to the vacuum
inlet port on the reservoir.
4.
If using external suction,
connect the external vacuum to the vacuum inlet
port on the reservoir.
