What are the
characteristics
and special
features of the
MCS+?
MCS+ collection procedures are quick and easy to initiate, requiring the operator
simply to:
" Select a collection protocol among the interchangeable Protocol cards.
" Install the disposable set elements.
" Enter donor information and modify procedure parameters as needed.
" Perform a single venous puncture and initiate the MCS+ procedure.
Haemonetics has incorporated advanced technological features into the portable
MCS+ design. Examples of these features which ensure safety for the donor/
patient and permit efficient time-management for the operator, are:
! A removable Protocol card: permits the operator to change between the
various MCS+ collection procedures available without requiring extra
technical service. Using this system, a collection procedure upgrade is
very simple – a new MCS+ protocol card is provided when MCS+ proce-
dure programming is revised.
! A large, interactive control panel: provides the operator with feedback and
on-line assistance.
!
The Haemo Calculator: an integral facet of the MCS+ function which cal-
culates processed procedure volumes based on individual donor/patient
characteristics and targeted product yields.
!
The Haemo Update function: allows the operator to consult updated
statistics at any time during the MCS+ procedure.
! The centrifuge chuck adapter: permits the operator to use a wide variety of
disposable sets containing either the Haemonetics Latham bowl or the
Haemonetics blow molded bowl.
! Self-loading pumps (including the Transfer pump): contribute to a well-
managed collection procedure.
!
Advanced optical sensor technology, including the anticoagulant drip
monitor which counts drops and monitors AC solution flow.
The communication box and bar-code reader for data acquisition and procedure
data transfer, either to a printer, or to the Haemonetics network, HaemoNet.
Setting up the
device
The following guidelines should be observed when setting up the MCS+ device:
! Always place the device on a flat, stable surface.
! Allow the device to equilibrate to room temperature before use.
! Always ensure the IV poles are in the “down” position and the cabinet cov-
er is closed when moving or transporting the device.
