Entering and Confirming Patient and Procedure Data
This section contains instructions for entering patient data, and reviewing and confirming run values. You can
enter the data after you select the procedure and before you connect the patient. It is important that the data you
enter be as accurate and as current as possible.
Entering Patient Data
1
Touch the buttons on the screen to enter the following information:
• Sex
• Height
• Weight
• Hematocrit (Hct)
• White blood cell (WBC) count
• Platelet count
The Spectra Optia system uses the sex, height, and weight to calculate the patient’s TBV. See page 266 for the
formula the system uses to calculate this value. If you prefer not to use the TBV that the system calculated,
touch
TBV
and enter a different volume. The operator override icon ( ) will appear on the button.
2
Touch
Confirm
. The run values screen appears.
Reviewing and Confirming Run Values
1
Review the run values that appear on the screen and confirm that they are correct. The run targets for an
MNC collection procedure are listed below. A black frame appears around the button of the primary run
target.
• Whole blood processed (mL)
• TBV processed
• Run time (min)
• Collect volume: Target (mL)
The configured volumes for plasma collection into the plasma bag and plasma collection into the collection
bag appear on the buttons. The system attempts to collect the plasma during the early part of the run. It
collects the plasma volume into the plasma bag before it collects the plasma volume into the collection bag.
Note:
When you are required to enter numerical data, the system displays a data entry pad for entering the data. The
acceptable numerical range appears on the data entry pad.
Note:
If the patient weighs less than 25 kg (approximately 55 lb), the system does not calculate a TBV. You
must calculate and enter the appropriate TBV for the patient.
