ALERT:
Quick Transfer Mode is only used to transfer unwashed shed blood into the final collection bag with no processing. The user is responsible
for executing Quick Transfer Mode and determining if the product contained in the reinfusion bag is suitable for reinfusion into the patient.

Quick Transfer mode is only available for use with the Cell Salvage protocol.

Quick Transfer mode is available for use with the 225 mL bowl,
NOT
the 70 mL or 125 mL bowls.
NOTE:
Quick Transfer is not available when using Manual Mode.
Before Initiating Quick Transfer Mode
- Ensure the two large, white ratchet clamps on the blue line
and the large, white ratchet clamp on the red line are open.
- Ensure the slide clamp on the outlet port of the
Reservoir is open.
- Check that the vacuum applied to the reservoir
is <250 mmHg (33 kPa).
- Dilution of packed red cells with saline is necessary to
decrease viscosity within the Reservoir before initiating
Quick Transfer.
- To avoid clotting in the Reservoir, ensure the volume of
blood is properly anticoagulated before initiating
Quick Transfer.
